I had to laugh at "the great white hunter" in Jurassic Park. With a SPAS-12 he had one Raptor in his sights when another popped up on his flank. If the dummy just pulled the trigger and taken out the first, the sound of the shotgun blast would most likely have scared number 2 away. Movies.
Which brings back another point. The true animal called a Velociraptor was the size of a current turkey.

Yes, but a member of the same family, called the Utahraptor, reached a length of 20 feet and weighed in at about 1 ton. He had 2 inch long teeth and super long killing claw and very sharp hand claws. A true killing machine.
On a special note, in JP, they increased the size of velocoraptor to make it much scarier, however, shortly after the movie came out, paleontologists did find one that matched the size of the exaggerated one in the movie.
