Real life velociraptors were tiny and pathetic

Dr. Crichton did do a lot of research for the book. While the real velociraptors were indeed pathetic, another species was discovered shortly after the novel came out: The Utahraptor, I think it's called, which is more in line with Dr. Crichton's fictional velociraptors.
He also made a very basic mistake.
Costa Rica doesn't have an air force. Or armed forces of any kind. Much less the capability to bomb the hell out of an island. -

They were around six feet long and weighed up to forty pounds. That's a pretty big chicken.
There are 8.2 billion people in the world. 8.19 billion of them have never heard of and don't give a fuck about Charlie Kirk. Get over it. -

Yeah.
The raptors in JP were a lot more like the Deinonychus.
But then the Dilophosaurus didn’t have frills or spit poison either.
You could explain it all away with the dinosaurs being mutated by amphibian DNA if Alan Grant didn’t describe the raptors as 6ft tall before seeing them on the island -

I mean holy sh** they were normally not even half the size of a grown man, and they were full of feathers. Grant could have probably killed all 3 of them with a crowbar. In the book Muldoon
Funniest quote ever made about the movie.
