The Velociraptors are a group of sharpteeth that appeared at the end of The Land Before Time III: The Time of the Great Giving.

The Land Before Time

Its first appearance in the series, in 1988's The Land Before Time, is also its most minor; a Velociraptor appears for less than a second during the Great Earthshake, fleeing a shockwave alongside a number of other creatures. This is the only instance of this specific morph of Velociraptor to appear in the entire series; it is slender with thin legs, pale, slit-pupiled eyes, a black and gray color scheme and - oddly - no obvious sickle claws.

The Land Before Time III: The Time of the Great Giving

The small sharpteeth were not seen until the climax of the movie when the dinosaurs enter the Mysterious Beyond. At least four of them appeared and attacked the herd. One was knocked out by a huge rock. The other three chased after the hatchlings, and blocked their path. However, the adults showed up behind them, resulting in a fight off-screen. The fight resulted in both the grown-ups and the sharpteeth to fall off the small cliff.

The sharpteeth got up first and attempted to attack the unconscious dinosaurs, but Hyp's father intervened and distracted them, prompting Hyp himself to draw the sharpteeth attention. The adults woke up and continued their fight with the sharpteeth until the sharpteeth climbed up the hill towards the hatchlings. However, the hatchlings counterattacked by pushing a huge rock down that knocked the sharpteeth down the hill. Just as the dinosaurs were going to continue fighting, the water flowed after the rocks covering it were removed and the sharpteeth were washed away. They ended up on the land the opposite of the herd.
