The Velociraptors

These are some of the most iconic dinosaurs thanks to the movie Jurassic park. However what you may not know is that the dinosaur in Jurassic Park was actually a Deinonychus.

Cleva gurl...
Another thing you may not know is that the actual velociraptor is about the size of a large chicken. They were only thought to have grown to a whopingly puny size of 30 pounds.Pretty much everything you may think you know about the raptor is probably not true. They didn't hunt in packs, they actually had feathers, and it wasn't incredibly fast.

So what did the raptor look like? Proably something like this....

about the size of your dog
So i hope i didn't ruin Jurassic Park too much for you.

  7. Yeah, but how long will it be a fact? They've proved that many dinosaurs fossils were incorrectly put together. Like the brontosaurus (sp?), that made me sad when I found out that they're not real.
