WILL JURASSIC WORLD EXPLAIN WHY RAPTORS HAVE SO MANY VARIATIONS?

Number 23 on my list of problems with jurassic world would be the change in apearance for the raptors. I have never got over why the jp3 raptors look so differant, and now they are telling us that the jw raptors will have differant apearances too?

I love the original raptor desighn from jp1 (you know...the good one), sorry couldnt resist...

I hope that they ecxplaine why the raptors have so many physical variations in jurassic world. When you look at a herd of rinos, they are all the same color, (now that i think of it cats have many physical varieations, hell even snakes do...i f*cking HATE snakes)

I love snakes. 

Not sure. Evolving, adapting to different habitats.

Well, a magazine article about the film said this: There also a part about the numerical Dinosaur evolution through the movies.

yeah, well that would be cool if not for...EVOLUTION TAKES PLACE OVER AN ECXTREEMLY LONG PERIOD OF TIME, not 22 years!

And about snakes, lets just say i have had some bad ecxperiances with snakes, ok?

@Mr.Happy9097, I also love snakes. Constrictors are my personal favorite.

First, it's believed by some fans that the Jurassic Park Velociraptor is divided up into two species:

V. Antirrhopus Nublarensis (JP, TLW)

V. Antirrhopus Sornaensis (JPIII)

As you mentioned, snakes and cats have many different varieties, but I'm going to use another example-

These are three different varieties of one species, the Leopard Gecko. These varieties can naturally occur, or selective breeding can create more varieties. Jurassic World explains that we've learned more about genetics in the last decade that in a century of digging up bones. It's possible that these V. A. N. morphs are naturally occuring (as a couple green ones were seen in the trailer), or they were bred to specifically have these colors.

I know about the geckos, look at ball pythons. but yeah, i love that idea of raptors having differant polymorphs

I've heard a Ton of different rumors...

Ranging from there being Different Packs all over the island with different Variations, To a Genetic Hiccup.

While, The multiple packs is Plausible, It's extremely unlikely. 

However, Adaption to the Enviroment is most likely a cause. With an Aid of Genetic mutation, It makes even more sense. 

I don't feel inclined to write more about how this works, But, It's just one of the theories.

i'm going with the gecko theory

JPCerato

I hope they do! It is an interesting subject, I love all of the raptors! I actually love to have different types!

Silver_Falcon

Yeah, the gecko/cat/rabbit theory makes the most sense vto me.

Nice topic and this i actually agree with for once respectfully. But the jp3 raptors are sick, even though they make no sense! Technially they shoulda been the tiger stripy ones like tlw raptors. 

But anyway back on subject i watched a video on you tube called jurassic time? Its basically the memoirs of john hammond which are lines extracted from the game jurassic park trespasser. 

Anyway if u want to listen to it the link will be posted at the bottom . Its really gd. And quite in the canon of the film. Hammond mentions about ingen making three species of raptors the lost world ones and the jp3 ones. Living in seperate colonies in differ t parts of the island. Then they introduce a third species into the mountains. which is smaller And eat small mammals and lizards. Its excellent. Its the only and BEST explaination iv heard . I hope it helps! Its what i go by.
