Portrayed as a pack hunter in the Jurassic ParkTM film, researchers believe Velociraptor was more of a scavenger than a hunter. It lived 90 to 66 million years ago in what is now central and eastern Asia. A small feathered dinosaur, ranging in size from a large chicken up to six feet in height, fossil finds indicate many were about 30 pounds and three feet tall. It had sharp ripping claws, as seen in the movie, and could run about 40 miles per hour.
