Sharpteeth[]

Main article: Sharptooth

"Sharptooth" is the term in the series used to describe predators; though most are simply hungry predators looking for food (and do not fall under the umbrella of proper villains as a result), there are a total of three sharpteeth (four counting a tie-in book for the original movie) that qualify as proper villains.

Sharptooth as he appears in The Land Before Time: The Illustrated Story

In the original film, Sharptooth is a normal animal who attacks the main characters out of hunger, and does not qualify as a villain as a result; in The Land Before Time: The Illustrated Story, however, he is portrayed as an evil, vain character, his motivation for hunting down the children lying in his desire to get back at Littlefoot for damaging his eye. Even beyond his desire for revenge, The Illustrated Story describes how he attacks the children with "evil glee" in his first encounter with Littlefoot and Cera, and that, when he nears the Great Valley in the kids' last fight against the tyrannosaur, he sniffs the air "with evil joy" as he finds the valley's entrance.

Red Claw[]

According to Chomper and Ruby, Red Claw is the biggest and meanest Sharptooth of all. Voiced by Pete Sepenuk.
