Imagine that peacock being a guard dog and that's the call it makes before charging. Do you know how many people will think you have a velociraptor if they've seen any of the Jurassic Park or Jurassic World? It always makes me think of the velociraptors and I find it really cool.

I remember reading way back when, that they got really creative and searched out a lot of "new" animal -- and especially bird -- sounds when they were making the first movie. If I recall correctly, they also thought about birds a lot when they were creating the models and getting them to move. I looked it up, and the velociraptor "hiss" was from goose hissing -- not such a stretch to sound like a pea. Heavens, when they are doing their guard bird alarm honks, you'd think I had a whole flock of geese in the back yard.
