Coelophysis

Coelophysis is one of the best-known dinosaurs from the Triassic period. It was a carnivore which caught live prey. Due to its vigorous hunting tactics, Coelophysis would often break its teeth off in the process. It probably had the ability to regrow its teeth, an example of evolution and adaptation to its lifestyle.
