Everyone that disagrees should have a little face to face time with an enraged Cassowary and then visualise a Cassowary the size of a large truck.

    But velociraptors were actually about the size of medium-large dogs. When Jurrasic Park was making the models, the consultants stated the length from head to tail, and the modellers thought they were referring to height

    Ok, imagine a pack of very fast small cassowaries with very sharp teeth.

    Utahraptor is the size of the ones in the movie and was discovered the same year the movie came out. I like to think that's what they are, but Crichton and/or Spielberg just thought "velociraptor" was a cooler name.

    I turned our geese into attack dogs when was 3 because they liked me but no one else. This resulted in at least one instance of my uncle (moms younger brother) being chased around by five pissed off geese. I have respected feathered creatures ever since.
