Velociraptor (Film Universe)

Description

Appearance and Physical Attributes

There are three distinct variations of Velociraptor which were cloned by InGen, not counting sexual dimorphism seen within each individual version. However, despite the surface level variations, each sub-species remains relatively similiar in terms of physical attributes. Each species is roughly 6 feet tall, 13 feet long and weigh over 350llbs. They're each covered in taut, leathery skin not unlike that of a Komodo Dragons, with degrees and variation seen between subset and sexes.

Notably, they feature a 6inch sickle "killing claw" on the inner toes of each foot, which is one of the animals most signature deadly weapons. While the skull structure varies between each subset, they all feature a pronounced orbital socket with distinct antorbital fenestra ridges. Much like many modern reptiles, these animals mouths were lined with a strong lip structure.

Curiously, the animal InGen called Velociraptor is likely not a Velociraptor at all, but rather a larger species of Dromaeosaur. Velcoriraptors discovered by paleontologists are much smaller, roughly 6 feet long and only 1.5 feet tall. It is believed that the animal misidentified as a Velociraptor by InGens scientists was possibly a Atrociraptor judging by skull alone, but more likely a Achillobator which is close in profile and size.

Classification

InGen's Version 1.0

Version 1.0 is known to exist on both Isla Nublar and Isla Sorna, and was seen in both Jurassic Park and The Lost World.

The female Velocirapors are primarily a muted orangeish brown, with dark brown speckling overtop and a gunmetal green hue throughout.

InGen's Version 1.5 (IBRIS)
