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.

Behaviour

History

Classification

InGen's Version 1.0 (Jurassic Park, The Lost World)

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. Both the males and females have piercing, veiny, yellow eyes and nearly identical physical builds. The largest difference between each sex is color, and number per pride.

The female Velocirapors are primarily a muted orangeish brown, with darker brown speckling and splotching overtop with a gunmetal green hue throughout. Their underbelly is a lighter beige color, which transitions to the darker hues the higher it goes up the body. The females have very little distinct striping or spotting, and can appear rather uniform in color until closer, well lit inspection.

The male V.1 Velociraptors are more orange, with less dark splotching overall. However, they're easily distinguished from their female packmates as they are covered in dark brown stripes, not entirely unlike that seen in Bengal Tigers.

InGen's Version 1.5 IBRIS (Jurassic World)

InGen's Version 2.0 (Jurassic Park 3)
