The only scientifically accurate scene in Jurassic Park has a little boy say the velociraptor looks like a turkey. They knew dinosaurs were chickens, they just didn't bother showing us in movies.

They retconned Jurassic park saying the skin was like that because of the genes they had to splice up in order to bring them back to life.
