Thanks for posting!

My 8 yr old just finished a school project and had to make a Velociraptor poster. He is soooo excited to see a Raptor when we visit IOA this summer.

I saw the video. It seems like a family is coming up to the Raptor one at a time. Is there not a line?

Looks awesome and can't wait to check it out. Hopefully DS isn't too scared so we can check it out.

Is it back where the Triceratops Encounter used to be?

It would be more like a character meet....similar to the line that forms by Transformers (to meet Bumblebee, Optimus Prime or Megatron), or the line to meet Shrek, Donkey and Fiona.
