Yes, in the original Jurassic Park book by Michael Crichton, Dilophosaurus did not have a frill. However, in the book, it was still a venom-spitter. The explanation is that it did indeed have that ability back in the Jurassic, we just didn't know it until InGen brought them back. Oh yeah, and the small one in the movie was, according to at least one official source, supposed to be a juvenile.

I think the ones we see in Jurassic park are not Juveniles but more of just artificially shrunken, I will assume the big ones were very dangerous so for safety purses they were shrunken.

Like you mentioned all Dinos in Jurassic Park are hybrids/chimera so they can give or take any ability they want because its not the real deal. The idea behind that is also mentioned to compensate for the missing DNA fragments. Which is a clever idea to actually bring dinos back alive without being to realistic about them.
@davepegington90669 ай бұрын
It is a good excuse. But what isn't. Is the lack of feathers. I can't see why all chimaeras would result in zero feather's in every species. According to experts .The small chicken sized Dino's were certainly covered in feathers. It's only the large dinosaurs which may not have had feathers as they were not needed to keep warm. And even then. It's likely as a tyrannosaurus baby that would have had downy feathers to protect the vulnerable rex chick until it grew up. (just like birds) Adult rex might have had small patches of decorative feathers for mating / to show maturity

Never thought of Dilos as evil monsters in the movies (except that time a sh**less scary 9 year old kid thought it was an alien while watching the movie in theatre through the folds of my jacket and thoughtthe crests were antennas). It's a sort of karmic punisher. In two "live" appearances they killed just the bad guy.

Dilophosaurus was a favourite of mine even before Jurassic Park first came out, having read about this gorgeous dinosaur. (often jokingly wondering how good a pet it could have been if it was tameable and hadn't gone extinct, lol.), I bet they were beautiful animals when they were alive.

Wrong: some dinosaurs were venomous, like the four-winged proto-bird dinosaur. Its teeth seem to feature canals for venom or hosting nad bacteria that with a bite go into the prey's body. There also seem to be cavities above its upper teeth which could (but not sure) point owards venom storage.

Dilophosaurus is my favorite dinosaur, but I despised the way it was portrayed in the film. Dilophosaurus was turned into a tiny and pathetic venom spitter which was really a giant apex predator in real life. It was one of the first theropod dinosaurs one could truly call colossal, and it set the blueprint for what larger theropod dinosaurs would become, including the T.rex. It was a robustly built carnivore with a powerful bite, because as it turns out, the double crests were used to support massive jaw muscles.

In some ways, the venom spitting ability is like a non-professional predecessor to all yesterdays style thinking. That conservative reconstructions that minimally fit the skeleton are not the be all and end all of what is possible and that even though it is speculation, we should be willing to accept that some speculative adaptations probably existed.

@gibbnasta Actually, you’d be amazed at how close it is in size to its base animal Deinonychus! The JP/ W raptors are around 6 feet ( 2 meters ) tall, 9 - 12 feet ( 3 - 4 meters) long, & weighing 330 pounds ( 150 kg). Deinonychus irl was around 3 - 4 feet ( 1 - 1.5 meters) tall, 11 feet ( 3.4 meters) long & 130 - 220 pounds ( 60 - 100 kg) Utahraptor is a MASSIVE animal for its group, reaching 18 feet ( 5.5 meters) long, 6 - 7 feet ( 2 - 2.5 meters) tall & 660 pounds ( 300 kg). Utahraptor is one of several of the largest Dromaeosaurs of the current fossil record, along with Dakotaraptor, Achillobator, & Austroraptor. All of which are around equal size!

@@hcollins9941 They are Deinonychus, but someone thought Velociraptor sounded cooler. I haven't read the book, so I'm not sure where the name change occurred. I vaguely remember Spielberg saying something about it, so it was probably his fault. For people who want accuracy, it's unnecessary nonsense.
@hcollins994110 ай бұрын
@adolfknievel I know that they are Deinonychus, that’s why I said they are closer in size to their base dinosaur ( deinonychus) instead of Utahraptor. The real reason they call them Velociraptor is NOT because it sounds cooler, that is actually a myth. It’s actually because at the time of making the book & film, author Michael Crichton, & director Steven Spielberg, were using current paleontology information from the book “ Predatory Dinosaurs of the World” by renowned Paleontologist Gregory S. Paul; who at the time, believed Deinonychus was a separate species of Velociraptor & not its own genus. He always had a habit of lumping some species together with others if they were similar. Secondly they COULDN’T use Utahraptor as a base, because it wasn’t official described until halfway through the film’s production & publicly named some time after the film’s theatrical release.

Jurassic Park Velociraptors are also too big to big to be Deinonychus. Deinonychus were closer in height and size to a wolf. While Jurassic Park Velociraptors were closer to height and size with Achillobator and Dakotaraptor.
