Blue, one of the most popular dinosaurs from Universal Picturesand Amblin Entertainment’sblockbusterJurassic Worldfranchise, is now part ofUniversal Studios Hollywoodand Universal Orlando Resort’sexciting “Raptor Encounter” experiences inviting guests to brave the dangerous predatorin daring face-to-face standoffs.
The imposing life–like creature is Owen’s beloved Velociraptor fromJurassic World and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdomand was brought to life for the “Raptor Encounter” employingthe exact computer–generated model and imagesused to create her for thebig screen.
Blue is a welcome new addition to the “Raptor Encounter,” allowing guests to come face-to-face with the clever carnivore. Velociraptors are intelligent and formidable hunters, and theme–park guests are advised to approach them with caution.
With their intimidating eye contact and ear-piercing screeches that reinforce predatory dominance, each Raptor bares 56 razor–sharp, bone-crushing teeth and lunges forward with curved talons that extend up to 12 inches from their 18–inch-long feet. Towering 12 feet in height and 15 feet—from tail to snout—the aggressive carnivores will each succumb to highly skilled handlers who adeptly guide them to within feet of guests.
