Gallimimus ( ; meaning " chicken or rooster mimic ") is a genus of ornithomimid theropod dinosaur from the late Cretaceous period ( Maastrichtian stage ) Nemegt Formation of Mongolia.

Gallimimus is known from multiple individuals, ranging from juvenile ( about 0. 5 metres tall at the hip ) to adult ( about two metres tall at the hip ).

The only named species is the type species Gallimimus bullatus.

In a reanalysis of the nearly complete skeleton of " Gallimimus mongoliensis " Barsbold concluded in 2006 that it is not a species of Gallimimus but may represent a new, currently unnamed ornithomimid genus.

A diagnostic character of Gallimimus is a distinctly short ' hand ' relative to the humerus length, when compared to other ornithomimids.

Gallimimus had a number of adaptations which suggest good running ability, such as a strong ilium, heavy tail base, long limbs, a long tibia and metatarsus and short toes, but it is unknown how fast it could run.

Hurum suggests that a " large widening of the anterior end of the prearticular " is an apomorphy for Gallimimus bullatus.

Barrett also offered calculations, estimating how much energy could be derived from filter feeding and the probable energy needs of an animal as big as Gallimimus.

Gallimimus appeared in the motion picture Jurassic Park.

Inside you meet more Raptors, and as you enter a containment room, Velociraptors, Gallimimus, Pteranodon, Triceratops, and Dilophosaurus, escape from their cages and attack you while you try to remove the Jurassic Park jeeps and gasoline barrels in your way.

A second species announced by Barsbold in 1996, " Gallimimus mongoliensis " based on specimen IGM 100 / 14 from the older Bayanshiree Formation, has never been formally referred to this genus.

Gallimimus was rather ostrich-like, with a small head, toothless beak, large eyes, a long neck, short arms, long legs, and a long tail.

All ornithomimids had long skulls but that of Gallimimus was exceptionally elongated, due to an elongation of the snout.

Norwegian researcher Jørn H. Hurum in 2001 published a detailed description of a complete lower jaw bone from Gallimimus bullatus.

Gallimimus was in 1972 assigned to the Ornithomimidae.

The original describers thought Gallimimus preyed upon small animals, using its long arms as rakes to remove covering plant material on the soil.

Aside from Gallimimus, other theropods found in the Nemegt Formation include the gigantic Tarbosaurus and Deinocheirus, as well as smaller dromaeosaurids, oviraptorosaurs, troodontids, and birds.

More advanced species, members of the family Ornithomimidae, include Gallimimus, Struthiomimus, and Ornithomimus.

Struthiomimus specimens from the Hell Creek Formation are larger ( similar to Gallimimus in size ) and tend to have straighter and more elongate hand claws, similar to those seen in Ornithomimus.

In 1988 Gregory S. Paul renamed Gallimimus bullatus into Ornithomimus bullatus.

It is also possible, but equally doubtful, that he actually shot down the hundreds of men with which his legend credits him.

Recognizing that the Rule of Law is `` a dynamic concept which should be employed not only to safeguard the civil and political rights of the individual in a free society '', the Congress asserted that it also included the responsibility `` to establish social, economic, educational and cultural conditions under which his legitimate aspirations and dignity may be realized ''.

In addition to the authentication and acknowledgment procedures which precede and follow the sending of the go messages, again in special codes, each message also contains an `` internal authenticator '', another specific signal to convince the recipient that he is getting the real thing.

He added that he also stresses the works of these favorite masters on tour, especially Mahler's First and Fourth symphonies, and Das Lied Von der Erde, and Bruckner's Sixth -- which is rarely played -- and Seventh.

The test of form is fidelity to the experience, a gauge also accepted by the abstract expressionist painters.

Though he is also concerned with freeing dance from pedestrian modes of activity, Merce Cunningham has selected a very different method for achieving his aim.

The answers derived by these means may determine not only the temporal organization of the dance but also its spatial design, special slips designating the location on the stage where the movement is to be performed.

It is because there is not only darkness but also light that our situation becomes inexplicable.

but there is also compassion.

also he is a drunk, and has lost his job on that account.

And if I have gone into so much detail about so small a work, that is because it is also so typical a work, representing the germinal form of a conflict which remains essential in Mann's writing: the crude sketch of Piepsam contains, in its critical, destructive and self-destructive tendencies, much that is enlarged and illuminated in the figures of, for instance, Naphta and Leverkuhn.

By `` image '' is meant not only a visual presentation, but also remembered sensations of any of the five senses plus the feelings which are immediately conjoined therewith.

he is questioning, also, every epistemology which stems from Hume's presupposition that experience is merely sense data in abstraction from causal efficacy, and that causal efficacy is something intellectually imputed to the world, not directly perceived.
