<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="cladornis-pachypus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>An extinct bird from Patagonia, Argentina, Cladornis pachypus is known from Eocene fossil deposits and represents an early carnivorous avian of uncertain affinities. With robust foot bones implied by its epithet ('thick-footed'), it may have been a ground-dwelling predator, contributing to the diverse Paleogene avifauna of South America.
