National Velociraptor Awareness Day in USA
National Velociraptor Awareness Day in USA is held on April 18. This event in the second decade of the month April is annual.
Jurassic Park, later also referred to as Jurassic World, is an American science fiction media franchise centered on a disastrous attempt to create a theme park of cloned dinosaurs.
Steven Spielberg’s “Jurassic Park” films turned raptors into legitimate Hollywood superstars during the early ’90s.
That’s because production on “Jurassic Park” began before the 1991 discovery of the so-called Utahraptor skeleton — measuring 5 1/2 feet tall — the largest at that time. Said one film designer: “We designed it, we built it, and then they discovered it. That still boggles my mind.”
