      Makes sense, both in franchise and for franchise. It's not the real thing, it doesn't even look like the real thing (although, first film was pretty "realistic" considering what we knew back then), it looks as you expect it to look. Btw, we didn't discover utahraptor since after the film, JP raptors were ment to be scary, not realistic. It's just such an irony, movie monster gets validated by science.

    The part of the documentary saying that didn't know why velocitaptor would attack prey larger than it's self is actually a bit explainable, all they have to do is look at birds of prey, bird's of prey go after prey bigger than themselves as well as small prey, golden eagle's hunt deer, wolves, fox's and mountain goat which are all bigger than the eagles themselves and it's not because they are sick or weak, peregrine falcons have been known to attack and hunt pelicans which again are much bigger than the falcons themselves, raptors today or bird's of prey are very opportunistic predators and will take any chance they can with their prey if they know they can dispatch it and eat it, so it's very likely that velocitaptor was the same way

    One thing that gets me with raptor types, and the Velociraptor, is I find the actual animal far scarier than the Jurassic Park version.
    Ok, the JP ones are scary as f*ck... but the real animal being basically a decent sized feathered bird of prey that hunted in packs like wolves, makes it something far beyond anything that fiction could write.
    When you then consider that Deinonychus is closer to the movie, the Deinonychus itself then becomes scarier in its own right than the movie.
    Giant, 6ft birds of prey that had enormous killing claws on their feet, razor sharp teeth, and a pretty decent sized brain.
    Scary stuff.
    I mean, with Velociraptor, imagine being hunted by a pack of wolves across a tundra or through a forest. They're stalking you, and at any time may actually charge, and circle you, pincer movement to make sure you can't go one way or the other, you can only go forwards... which means the wolves behind you WILL catch you as you have no choice but to run in a straight line...
    ... but now imagine that scenario with a group of around 10 or 15 Eagle sized birds that have teeth for good measure.

      Barnyard chickens emus cassowaries and ostriches all reproduce after their own kind. That is the evidence we see today and all we know. When does sexual reproduction happen if it's taking millions or billions of years to change from one kind to another and then it has to find the female of the same thing somewhere that changed at the same time correct? I'm just curious where we get the logic that anyone could believe that dinosaurs could turn into a bird? Strange

      @@seanmartin2185 It's rather close-minded to aver that evolution & creationism are mutually exclusive. I have no issue believing that God created everything, & set in motion the evolution of the universe. God said, "Let there be light", & ever since, there's been light. Stars are born, live for trillions of yrs, & die. Our star, the sun, gives light to our solar system 24/7. God doesn't have to continually say, "Let there be light.". God created all life, & told it, "Be fruitful & multiply.". Life has done so, from the 1st bacteria which appeared on earth 4 billion yrs. ago, right up to today, with earth's human population now standing at 8 billion, because we've taken our Creator at His Word, & breed like frenzied rabbits. God doesn't have to tell every single male & female to be fruitful & multiply. He set the mechanism in place eons & eons ago, & has no need to constantly repeat himself. Science & astronomy have proven that the majority of the stars we see at night are so far away, & their light (created by God) takes so many billions of yrs. to reach earth, that those stars died long, long ago. Ice cores from Greenland & Antarctica, & sediment cores from lake & ocean beds, are used to track the geologic, climactic, & carbon-based life form evolution of earth, & even give evidence of interaction with space traveling objects such as asteroids & comets. Comets brought water to the new-born planet, cooling the fires of its birth, & eventually those waters covered the earth. It was at that point that "the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters". I will not limit my God by believing He Himself is constrained to humanity's imperfect knowledge of His works. I will not limit my understanding of the universe God has created by turning away from the scientific evidence of His power. As the hymn sings, "Oh Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder consider all the worlds Thy hands have made - I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder - Thy power throughout the universe displayed...How great Thou art!"

      @seanmartin2185 2 года назад

      @@cdfdesantis699 then consider Genesis and you'll see it's certainly mutually exclusive to God only. I would just consider the god of the Holy Bible not this God that you have fantasized. I do not see anything in scripture except the let there be light and a few things else you said that were correct. Did you end up getting as far as day 6 reading where He created Adam? And actually the entire first chapter God would have written himself obviously it says God said and God said, and God said, and God said and it says it quite a few times and everything happened exactly how it should have. Chapter 2 you'll notice somebody else is offering! It's man yeah it's now Lord God Lord God. Genesis actually has 10 authors in total. As far as the star is being where they're at you've also missed the other passages of scripture and just seek them all out for yourself but I will send you a list of scriptures that states after God created the stars that were around the earth which was created first he flung them into place he stretched the heavens and it is still in the process of moving. You are correct and saying God doesn't have to continually speak light. But it was not billions or trillions of years ago because clearly the Bible gives us how old Adam was until he died. If you add up all the dates in the Bible it comes to almost 6,000 years ago to the creation. I believe God is on a time scale and 6,000 years will represent the six day work week. On the day of the Lord's return that will start the next Thousand Years of the great day of the lord. He is always on time. Anyway he stretched forth the heavens the stars are in place where they are and there is no issue with seeing the lights and it can be certainly as far away as they are saying it is. That is still not a problem for us to see it if God initially created the Stars around the Earth in a closer proximity that's not a problem for God. There are trees that are standing through layers of rock that these people claim are formed over millions of years slowly. It's not possible the tree is fully preserved it could never have stood there that long while somehow layers of straight Rock and Earth are being formed around it. Obviously this thing was buried rapidly. The fossils were very rapidly. You cannot have a fossil you cannot have death pose positions on animals like they find when they dig these things if they were not buried quickly. To deny the Genesis account is to just completely forget about God. I'm trying to say you can't have it both ways. You have to stick with the Genesis account and that God of creation and trust that otherwise it all falls apart

This isn't a secret in the series, and Dominion does include Pyroraptor (supposedly purebred), which is covered in feathers. As for the size, and pack hunting, they wouldn't be very scary if they weren't big enough, or likely to creep at you from the sides, and the point of the scene is to elicit a fear reaction.

Otherwise, a very interesting and informative video, thank you!

    lol sorry for the critism, but your job is to inform right? well new studies on archosaurs like birds, crocodiles and even pterosaurs on intelligence have been done within the last three years. so at 42:06 the entire segment should be redone. Since the old way of think that size of body and brain makes intelligence, but if you look at a corvid or a parrot, its pretty obvious that that way of thinking is just not right. New studies on dromaeosaurs have shown that they could have been extremely curious and intelligent creatures, way more intelligent then say a "turkey" since turkey's arent predators, thats like comparing a lion to a antelope. xD

    Wait, what? Pretty sure Dakotaraptor is the youngest dromaesaurid species discovered. Having been found in the Hell Creek formation, in South Dakota, it means that it was one of the species that was around when the asteroid hit, just like T-rex and Triceratops, putting it at around 1 million years younger than Dineobellator.

    I believe the illustrations are wrong. Some have their claws/wrists facing down. they should have their hands facing each other due to a moon-shaped bone on their wrists that prevents them from being able to do that. I think its called the semilunate 🦆🦆

    • @davidletasi3322
      @davidletasi3322 Год назад +1

      Correct, the semilunate pronates each manus in a rotation that their palms would be facing each other first digit up in a catching stance. I recently discovered a semilunate from Utahraptor near Moab. Also, being covered in feathers, the digits would be partially hidden. The entire arm would appear cover in feathers and rather folded and bird like when not extended. In my opinion, artist Emily Willoughby reproduces the most accurate restoration of their appearance. If you would approach one from a distance, you might assume it to be a strange looking bird. An associate of mine just sent me a second manus digit with a claw for research study from North Dakota that I believe is to be from Acherorapter temertyorum. The claw was very curved and sharp like Eagle Talons for holding prey. Everyone of these fossils is extremely rare. So far, the foot bone from A. temertyorum from South Dakota we are working on are similar to Adasaurus from central Asia. Still under study to certain.

    Idk, The Jurassic Park/World movie series are science fiction. Not real. I totally get why they didn't change the way Velociraptors looked in the following movies. The literally combined DNA from frogs or something to complete the DNA profile to create them in the first place. Of course they're not going to look accurate to the real ones. I've heard many people say they're not going to watch the movies because of how inaccurate the dinos are. Which, everyone is of course entitled to their own opinions, but come on lol it's science fiction! The writer chose to use the name Velociraptor but base the looks on the Deinonychus because Velocirator sounded more fierce and scary. Yes he used scientific data to write his books, but it's still fiction! If you want to watch scientifically accurate dinosaurs, (at least, accurate to what information we have available NOW) Go watch Prehistoric Planet. (Seriously, watch it, it's SO GOOD) But I personally think the Jurassic Park movies and spin offs are just for entertainment purposes only. It's not a scientific documentary or a movie you would watch to learn about dinosaurs. Again, I totally don't blame them for not changing anything.

      If they fed on eggs, then they wouldn't have any teeth, most animals that fed on eggs didn't have sharp teeth, there's a snake that will literally swallow an egg whole, crush it inside its body then regurgitate the shell. Rapters were in fact very much indeed carnivores, all the evidence proves that and continues to, not to mention the single hook claw on their feet were used to not only get a good grip but also slash as they kick when on their prey smh

      Setting the fact that egg-eating animals are still carnivores aside, Velociraptors had sharp claws, sharp teeth, and were designed to run quickly and swiftly, suggesting they would have likely been chasing prey. Almost every part of their design is fine-tuned to the qualities of a predator. Literally what else do you need to convince you?
