'''Dinosaur''' is a human term that describes various reptilian-like life forms that inhabit the [[galaxy]].{{Fn|1}}
The term does not imply a biological relationship between different creatures, but rather reptilian similarities in appearance. Apart from that, dinosaurs can vary tremendously in size and form. Larger dinosaurs are especially common on [[death world]]s, where they are often among the main predators.{{Fn|1}} The word "dinosaur" is derived from the name that was given to the prehistoric animals that lived on [[Terra|ancient earth]], long before mankind.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}
[[Eldar]] [[Exodites]] are known to ride giant lizards bearing a striking resemblance into dinosaurs into battle.{{Fn|5}}
