Reblogged from jurassicparkfans :

Asked by spidey-loving-starkid:

Can you help me identify some key differences between Echo and Delta in Jurassic World? Blue and Charlie I can identify by sight, but I often mix up the other two raptors.


jurassicparkfans:

Yeah! I think I’ll describe the others as well, just for any of my followers who are still confused. As a lot of the raptor scenes are dark as well, I’ll try to point out which scenes correspond to which raptor.

BLUE is obviously the most recognizable in the whole raptor squad pack, she has a bright blue stripe down her flank, and is a sort of greenish-grey colour. She can be seen in the following scenes:

When the pack turns on Owen (obviously)
She is the one who attacks Barry
She is one of the two that chases the mobile vet unit, along with Delta
She is the one who fought the Indominus with Rexy (obviously)
The only confirmed surviving raptor from Jurassic World
She was also the leader of the pack, and the oldest

image

DELTA is the second oldest in the pack. She is a dull green mottled colour. She has a dark spot on her eye and she has some distinct birdlike movements. She is the one typically depicted with round pupils, though this is never shown in the film. She can be seen during:

When the raptors attack the handler, she is the one on the left
She is the one that Hoskins develops a special interest in
She attacks the InGen merc at the back of the MVU, in front of Zach and Gray
She is the raptor that chases the MVU with Blue
She is the one that kills Hoskins
She is the one who is distracted by the Dilophosaurus hologram
She and Echo are the two that attack the Indominus after Blue is knocked out
She is thrown off the sceen by the Indominus, so she may still be alive

image

ECHO is the second youngest. Her distinguishing feature is a scar across her muzzle from challenging Blue as the leader of the pack, though this can be difficult to see in the movie. She most closely resembles the original Jurassic Park raptors; she’s mostly brownish, with blue and green marks on her back and face. She doesn’t have a prominent role in the film, but she can be recognized in these scenes:

She is the raptor that catches the loose pig, and subsequently causes the young handler to fall into the pen
She’s the only one not seen in the “pratt-keeping” sequence (probably because she’s devouring the pig)
She’s the one that growls at the handler through the cage bars
She attacks the Indominus with Delta after the Indominus knocks Blue out
She is the one that the Indominus throws into a grill, and is incinerated

image

CHARLIE is the youngest and most “puppy-like” of the four (she’s on the right in the above image). She’s bright green with thin, dark green stripes all across her body. She is also the absolute best and is extremely adorable. She appears in the following scenes:

She is the one who keeps hitting the other Velociraptors with her tail
During the “pratt-keeping” scene, she’s the one on the right
She’s the one that is blown up by a rocket, which she didn’t deserve, but whatever.


I know this turned out to be a pretty long answer, but I hope it helps you and any others that were confused about which raptors were which.
