Jurassic Park raptor scene with scientifically accurate Utahraptors

They call them Velociraptors, but they’re really Utahraptors. The actual Velociraptor was only the size of a Labrador or a German Shepherd.

My kids are really into dinosaurs right now, so we’ve been going to all the local museums and checking out lots of dinosaur books from the library. As scary as the dinosaurs were in the original Jurassic Park, I think they’re even scarier with feathers.
