 * Note: I chose Deinonychus because the original post said that the animals would be scientifically accurate and thanks to the JP films, everyone knows the name Velociraptor, but think it looks like Deinonychus - if I put in a real Verlociraptor, everyone would get disappointed!

Sure, it's also bad to have a Deinonychus (or Dakotaraptor, Achillobator, and Utahraptor) simply bite your neck and suffocate you to death, but the point is, you are already dead when this (or these) large dromaeosaurs start to eat you. Velociraptor on the other hand, may be gradually smaller, but they are faster, more flexible, and deadlier--- something that WOULD get the public's attention.

A Raptor might have trouble clinging to a person, since their fingers (except for the first one) were under the wing feathers and that the third finger had vestigal a claw(very small claw hidden under the skin)
