- Raptors were likely not pack hunters as depicted in movies like Jurassic Park, a new study suggests.
- Evidence to support the notion that raptors hunted in groups is thin, and modern dinosaur relatives aren’t known for hunting in packs.
- It’s likely, the researchers argue, that raptors fended for themselves.

Jurassic Park is a fantastic film. Its sequels are a mixed bag, but the original is just about as close to perfect as a movie gets and I will not entertain any other opinions. But a movie being good doesn’t necessarily mean it’s realistic, and that’s doubly true for a movie about dinosaurs being brought back to life.
A new study out of the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh suggests that one creative liberty taken by the film (and the book on which it was based) was likely pure fiction. The notion that raptors hunted in packs is a big part of the Jurassic Park story, but new evidence fails to support that idea.
