((This is for the Age of Avians group)) How do you think birds could rule Earth? You can come up with a scenario to how the mammals could ultimately fall and how the birds will rise. Or you can do something entirely different  

(( John Hammond, CEO of InGen, has created Jurassic Park: a theme park on a tropical island populated with dinosaurs cloned from the DNA extracted from insects preserved in prehistoric amber. The first dinosaurs they cloned were the Velociraptors or Deinonychus on Isla Sorna, ofter raptors like Utahraptors and Achillobators. All raptors are highly intelligent pack hunters. They could run 60-70 mph at full sprint, so they could outrun most dinosaurs. They have a primitive level of vocalization which enables them to direct attacks and call for help. They are also able to set traps. Raptors did not always get along, and were sometimes very anti-social towards each other and each species conflicted. However, they show a high devotion in protecting or retrieving their eggs. Many Raptors may have hunted in packs. The most well known evidence of this are the fossilized remains of a group of Raptors eating an adult Tenontosaurus. Dr. Alan Grant's theory is that if you were to stand still in front of a Raptor, the Raptor would just look back, as if in a standoff. Then the attack would come, not from the front, but from the flanks by other Raptors you wouldn't even know were there. The Raptors would typically pounce on their prey and slash at the stomach with the retractable claw on the middle toe. The average distance an adult Velociraptor could jump was around 10-15 ft high and about the same in length. They could run 60-70 mph at full sprint, so they could outrun most dinosaurs. The Velociraptor's intelligence is the equivalent of modern primates and they are capable of creating advanced strategies and problem-solving. Other things they're capable of are opening doors, digging, etc. The Velociraptor's brain was developed enough to let them work together to bring down prey, as fossil evidence has supported that they hunt in packs. Similar to modern-day birds, Raptors communicate with one another through vocal calls. However, there is a lot of verbal communication where Raptors on Isla Sorna are seen "talking" to each other in what could be depicted as Raptor "language". Velociraptors are 9 feet long and 5-6 feet tall, Utahraptors are 22 feet long and 6-8 feet tall, and Achillobators are 20 feet long and 5-6 feet long. Yet the first and most popular were the Velociraptors, these were the most aggressive dinosaur species in the park, when they moved the animals from isla Sorna to Isla Nublar, several keepers were wounded and killed by them. Only 8 eight raptors was set in the park but the biggest female killed all except of three. Velociraptor sornaiensis is the one portrayed in the pic and is a subspecies to the Nublar raptors. There are two tribes that exist on Isla Sorna, the forest tribe with a clear difference between males and females just as the grassland tribe, recognized by the tiger striped pattern that males have and females a dark brown.  In Isla Nublar and Sorna all the Raptors were engineered as female to prevent unauthorized breeding. Of the three raptor species, only the Velociraptors were shipped to Isla Nublar, the Utahraptors are larger, stronger than and just as intelligent as velociraptor this animal was bred not to long after the first velociraptor specimens, they live in the mountain range on Sorna so that they don't run into their smaller relatives. The reason why they never was moved to Nublar were that Muldoon had enough problem with the Velociraptors and didn't risk more workers lives by bring Utahraptors to the island. They are pack hunters and sometimes they cornered the keepers and played deadly games with them but they didn't kill any keeper but injured at least one. This was before they start to feed them in the same way as Velociraptors, the same story happened to the achillobators. Apparently, only one known shipment to Isla Nublar came, with the Raptors being carried inside a large, maximum-security steel cage, and the loading process was a disaster. A large group of engineers and security, headed by Robert Muldoon, watched as the Raptors were being loaded into the pen, only for the creatures start an uprising in an attempt to escape. The animals were eventually quelled and loaded into their pen, but a worker died in the process when a prominent female attempted to drag him into the cage and devour him. In the park, the Raptors were kept in a large pen with an electric fence, their food consisting of live cows lifted down into the pen via, a crane. Nonetheless, Muldoon remained cautious around the creatures, with InGen considering them a security hazard, considering their high intelligence and nasty disposition. Originally, eight Raptors were breed; one of them being the prominent female, that Muldoon named the Big One. Within days, the female took over the pack and had the other Raptors attack the fence to test it for weaknesses. When this failed, she killed five of the eight Raptors, but spared the lives of only two, solidifying her role as leader of the pack. During Nedry's insurrection, the Raptor pen was, initially, left unharmed, but the power to the fence inevitably gave out when the mainframe was reset by Arnold. The Raptors then managed to bite their way out and patrolled the area to the electric bunker. Arnold eventually came through to turn the power back on, only to be killed and eaten inside the bunker by one of the Raptors, leaving only one of his arms. Ellie Sattler and Muldoon eventually came through the same way in an attempt to finish Arnold's work, walking into a trap set by two of the Raptors. Fortunately, Muldoon saw through the Raptor's ruse and held a gun on one of them while Ellie ran ahead into the bunker. Muldoon then attempted to hunt the Raptor in the bush, but he underestimated the creature's intelligence, and was ambushed by the alpha female, who had been using the other Raptor as bait. Muldoon was killed. Meanwhile, Ellie managed to turn the power back on to the park, only to be attacked from behind by the third Raptor. Fortunately, she managed to escape with only a hurt foot. Some time after, the three Raptors migrated to the visitor's center, where the alpha female and one other followed the scent of the kids, Lex and Tim, into the kitchen. After a brief hunt around kitchen, the alpha managed to find Lex, only to attack a metal cabinet that showed her reflection and hit the cabinet. The second raptor then chased Tim into the freezer, but slipped on the ice, as Tim escaped and locked the door behind him. The alpha, however, managed to regain consciousness and followed the children, along with Alan and Ellie to the computer room. After a brief struggle, Lex managed to fix the locks and shut the door on the Raptor. However, it broke through the glass and, when they climb into the vents. The third Raptor broke free from the electric bunker and chased them to the front of the visitor's center, where it jumped on the sauropod skeleton, causing it to collapse as they climbed onto it. The humans attempted to escape, but are cornered by the alpha Raptor. The third Raptor then took its opportunity and lunged for the humans, but is then seized out of the air by a Tyrannosaurus rex. While the others escaped, the Big One jumped on the rex's neck, only to slide into its jaws and be tossed violently into a decorative Tyrannosaurus rex model skeleton, presumably being killed by the impact. A helicopter arrives to take the surviving humans back to the mainland. InGen shipped a new pack of five Raptors, lead by the Scarred Raptor Leader, from Isla Sorna to replace the deceased ones, but had to be transferred to the quarantine pens as they were too dangerous to be kept in the standard holding pens. They, along with the Troodon, were kept under close watch by Laura Sorkin and her assistant David Banks. They later escaped and stalked the personnel left behind on the island and a mercenary team hired by InGen. One of the raptors was killed by the T, Rex. The new leader killed Oscar Morales, a member of the mercenary team who scarred her and killed another raptor in a face-to-face encounter earlier. The remaining subordinates then chased the remaining survivors until they caught the scent of a Troodon nest in the room the survivors took refuge in and then fled. Many raptors actually survived the later Napalm bombing of Isla Nublar by hiding in underground burrows and shelters. In Isla Sorna however, some incident has allowed the creatures to roam free, and a glitch in their genetic code has allowed some of them to be born males, allowing the animals to breed. The Raptors appeared with orange skin and tiger-like stripes and orange eyes. On the island, the freed Raptors are seen as having focused their feeding grounds closer to the center of the island; with at least one pack claiming the area near the InGen Village, and even the facility itself, as their territory. This makes it especially dangerous for anyone attempting to contact the outside world, as the facility is, supposedly, the only site on the island with the necessary equipment.  Four years after the Incident at Jurassic Park, two groups of people; a small research team hired by John Hammond, and an enormous strike force hired by Peter Ludlow become stranded on the island when attacks by the local animals destroy most of their equipment. Despite Ludlow's warnings, the team embarks towards the central facility. However, after an attack by a pair of local Tyrannosaurus rex the team becomes unorganized and separated, and, upon nearing the facility, come across a field of tall grass that happens to be home to a pack of Velociraptors, who promptly ambush the team, killing a fairly large number of men, including Ajay Sidhu. Whether it is because they had eaten their fill or simply did not catch them in time, the Raptors do not attack Hammond's team when they come through the grass, and Nick manages to make it into the facility and call for help. But when Malcolm, Sarah, and Kelly enter the facility to find him, they are set upon by three Raptors. While Ian distracts one the other two chase Sarah and Kelly inside the facility. Eventually, Ian evades the Raptor and runs into the facility and is cornered by one of the animals, but Kelly uses her gymnastic abilities to knock the Raptor out of the window, where it is impaled and dies. As the Malcolm's escape, Sarah tries to get out through the window, but is followed by the second Raptor and cornered by the third below. However, she manages to knock the Raptor off the roof, causing it to fall on the third, provoking a violent fight between the two. She then joins up with the Malcolm's and Nick and together they escape the island on a chopper. As time passed through small evolution the raptors became more bird-like, with males having feather quills on the back of their heads, barring the alpha female. They were also brightly colored and the males had small, red eyes, whereas the females have yellow eyes. In the film, the Velociraptors work together as a highly-communicable pack as there is no brutality in their social structure. At the start of the film, before Grant attends to the island, Billy creates a model Velociraptor "resonation chamber", a bony structure that enables complex communication. In the genetics admissions lab, a male is seen hiding its head behind one of the incubator machines. As Amanda Kirby takes a closer look, it's eye moves and it lunges out from behind the glass. It tries to bite Amanda, but is too big to fit through the machines. In itself, this implies that JPIII-raptors are very understanding of human emotions of "curiosity". The Raptor finds another way and chases the survivors, eventually trapping them in a maze of dinosaur cages. Billy Brennan and Amanda trap the raptor in one of the cages and it lets out a screeching, birdlike call. Dr. Alan Grant is amazed by it calling for help. Eventually, the raptor gets out and calls to its pack mates. In the jungle, other Raptors hear the one from the building and answer back. During the stampede of Parasaurolophus and Corythosaurus, two males are seen running at speeds up to 50-60 mph. In the jungle, a female stabs its retractable claw in Udesky's back and the pack uses him as bait to lure Billy, Amanda, and Paul Kirby. The Raptors again make another play on human emotions when it comes to compassion. When the trap fails, male Raptors kill Udesky by snapping his neck. Meanwhile, after being split from the others, Dr. Grant sees the alpha female and male "talking" to each other. He wonders what they are saying, or what they are looking for. Then he is cornered by three males and the alpha female. As the pack was closing in on him, Eric Kirby throws gas grenades, which drive the Raptors away. They reappear near the end of the film, wanting their eggs that Billy took earlier, which is the explanation for their earlier attack. They surround the survivors as they get down on their knees. The alpha female walks slowly up to Amanda and sniffs around her, thinking she stole the eggs. Dr. Grant opens Billy's bag and hands both eggs to Amanda who places them in the sand gently. Grant then takes out the resonating chamber Billy gave him and blows through it to confuse the Raptors. He then imitates their cry for help. One of the males attempts to attack him, but is stopped and reminded by the alpha female to get back into rank. She then hears helicopters coming and caws each male a command. While they take off into the jungle, the alpha male stays with her. The female picks up the first egg and the male picks up the second. Yet during the time they were contained thanks to a genetic glitch, the raptor's intelligence began to rise. And like dogs, parrots and your apes they listened to human language and began to read and pronounce their language thanks to reading signs. And since humans left their intelligence increased forthright beginning to develop  mirror self-recognition, an indication of self-awareness and cognition. Some of the raptors are capable of learning and distinguishing between several visual and some acoustic discrimination pairs. They even began to use tools. The raptors developed excellent memory. They also developed cognitive maps to allow them to remember large-scale spaces over long periods of time. Their problem solving abilities also increased. Individuals appear to be able to keep track of the current location of their family members. They even feel emotion. The have rituals around death and show a keen interest in the bones of their own kind, regardless of whether they are related. A dying or dead raptor seems to elicit attention in others, including those from other groups. Because they know who created them, they don't really have a religion. They began to understood Human language and eventually adopted it, yet almost none used english and instead used their own language. With the power was still on, they began using the radio towers on the island and discovered they can contact each ofter over long distances. With profound memory and intelligence they mastered the geothermal power plants and thus use it as a power source. They mastered computers thanks to their ken memory and intelligence and began to learn human culture. They also mastered the radios and used them to listen to human music and speeches. Because the technology is in little supply, very few raptors use the technology. When they mastered the TVs they began to watch and learn about human TV shows. Even if they are sapient they still attack like their ancestors and will show no mercy. They then discovered fire to cook their food, for light, and as weapons by holding large burning sticks in their mouths. They also developed artistic abilities by cave painting. They used the abandoned buildings as shelters, for storing stuff and food. They also domesticated the native mammal-like reptiles and smaller raptors. Because of their carnivorous diet, they don't need agriculture. They also develop trade. They also developed a government similar to England, with a Alpha and Omega ruling. Their militarys are strong thanks to their physical strength. They developed plays for tragedy, drama, and comedy. They also developed paper for printing. With their computers, some plan to use special viruses and hack into the world's computers and eventually create a nuclear apocalypse. Some raptors who don't live in the remaining buildings create huts made out of bones and grass. Thanks to computers they are aware of things most humans don't really care about like hunting. They eat their pets so that they don't over hunt the native dinosaurs. They are also fixing up the park, they are fixing the fences to contain the dinosaurs. They destroyed the roads and vehicles since they don't have fuel. They use the hadrosaurs and ceratopsians as riding and warrior livestock. The raptors don't really use mathematics. They wear clothing made out of vegetation. They are at war with the Isla Sorna raptors. Today after the napalm bombing they want all humans dead. Some are creating terrorist groups creating computer viruses that could cause a nuclear armageddon. More coming soon. ))  ((FEAR THE RAPTORS))

(After watching the BBC documentary "My Pet Dinosaur" i decided and thought up different ideas, so i decided that coming soon i will create a group that answers my question "What if dinosaurs never went extinct, humans still managed to evolve and prosper, and a second sapient species (dinosauroid) were able to coexist with us". So i thought, what dinosaurs could we domesticate, how could we live without diary, how could we protect our cities, how dinosaurs will appear, and how history could be changed. The group will answer those questions and ofters. So if popular enough people could upload pictures of people coexisting with these dinosaurs, how dinosaurs would appear, and us with dinosauroids, so please join my group if interested .)

(read the previous journal before this) Recently when advancing abandoned human technology, we found what we believe is the creater of life on the Island, the common mosquito, after restoring electricity we used the screen in what was once the visitor center, now a personal movie theater, when we found an abandoned movie, we played it and it gave us the ultimate knowledge and the answer to a question we pondered since we developed sentience and humans left, what created life on Isla Nublar, the religious raptors thought it was the works of gods and goddess each controlling a certain element. Yet we specialists found the answer, humans called cloning. We saw everything and since we have been gathering as much mosquitoes as possible each with the ability to bring back a dinosaur, but secretly we sent the information to the alpha (descended from what you humans call the big one) and omega rulers of Isla Nublar and plan to keep the information a secret to everyone even family and friends. We thought of the possibilities such as cloning dinosaurs to repopulate certain species, for scientific reasons, and military reasoning. We thought of combining different dinosaur and ofter animal DNA to create genetically altered super hybrids for food and military usage. Well according to our travelers, this idea was similar to a human who wanted to repopulate an island around Isla Nublar and he created an array of mixed dinosaurs and he calls this the Chaos Effect. Isla Sorna also found the idea but since they have much more dinosaur species and larger labs, we could be easily taken over by the Sorna raptors which are 90 miles away from Nublar my home. So we Nublar Raptors have decided to create our own versions of that human's creations and invade the miniature outlying islands, with creations like Ultimasaurus: A genetic mix of DNA from Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Velociraptor, Ankylosaurus and Stegosaur designed to be the ultimate predator and weapon and more. And my personal favorites, Raptor Alphas genetically advanced Velociraptors which will be Isla Nublar's greatest warriors.

After my kind mastered abandoned Isla Nublar electricity the opportunities and advantages over most reptiles skyrocketed. Thanks to left over communicators, we velociraptors are more connected than ever before, thanks to TVs we can learn about the outside world more. With computers we can learn more about your specie's culture, play games, watch videos, and control the island, yet now all of the computers are downloading what you humans consider the best, Windows XP, Windows 7 and 8. Yet these electronic materials are limited and few raptors are able to own them, I am lucky. Now that we mastered the power of electricity, we velociraptors plan to fix Jurassic Park. Being that we mastered computers, we can use security cameras to watch about every inch of the island and make sure no humans visit. We are beginning to fix the fences to contain those savage Tyrannosaurs, contain our triceratops and Gallimimus, ofter savage predators, and our Utahraptor and Deinonychus enemies from Isla Sorna. We are destroying the roads since we don't use vehicles due to the lack of fuel, and just leaving the tar. We are using the visitor center as a home for the Alpha and Omega of the island. And underground shelters once used to control electricity, now we velociraptors are storing your human made weapons like guns, knifes, axes, and bow and arrows, like computers, radios and TVs guns are extremely limited and rarely used. Ancient Raptor Pens are now our prisons. Thanks to leftover boats we are able to land foot and Isla Sorna and soon we will step foot and human soil. Abandoned carnival rides are still used as, well carnival rides. Hospitals, are still hospitals. We have domesticated certain Gallimimus, Triceratops, Compys, Dryosaurus, Stegosaurus, Corythosaurus, Pteranodon, Cearadactylus, Iguanodon, and Parasaurolophus, as our food sources and Troodon, Dilophosaurus, Dimetrodons, Ornitholestes and Lycaenops as pets. More coming soon
