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.

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 most likely a Atrociraptor or Achillobator, both of which are closer in size and skull structure.
