Compsognathus is a small, coelurosaurian theropod from the Late Jurassic of Germany and France. At around 1.25 meters (4 feet) and weighing less than a house cat (less than 1 kg / 2 pounds) it has historically been famous for being a tiny dinosaur among a group long known for its giants. While not covered in vaned feathers, Compsognathus almost certainly was covered in dense, fuzzy structures, as seen in its close relative, Sinosauropteryx. Presumably a hunter of small game, lizard skeletons were preserved in the gut contents of both specimens, recording the last meals of at least these two individuals.
