 Definition: 

Raptor
Zack, a paleontologist`s son, knows plenty about dinosaurs, but he never expected to meet one in real life. The seemingly impossible happens when a baby dinosaur hatches, imprints with Zack, and thus comes to believe that the boy is his mother. Unfortunately for Zack, the raptor`s real mother returns to claim her child...at any cost.
