Velociraptor (/ v ə ˌ l ɒ s ɪ ˈ r æ p t ər, v ə ˈ l ɒ s ɪ r æ p t ər /; [1] lit.

Two species are currently recognized, although others have been assigned in the past.
A size comparison diagram between a real-life Velociraptor (green) and a Velociraptor from Jurassic Park (orange) alongside a human (blue) Real Velociraptors measured approximately 2 feet (0.61 m) in height and 6 feet (1.8 m) in length. [9] The franchise, however, depicts the animal as being larger than its real-life counterpart.
Example: A image of Tyrannosaurus or Velociraptor depicting them as they appear in Jurassic Park being used in the articles on the genera, or an illustration of Deinonychus being a direct trace of another illustration of the same genus. Image depicts a scene which is anachronistic or contradicts known geographic range.
