The dinosaur noises in the "Jurassic Park" movie were made from recordings of tortoise having sex.
If you're a fan of all things dinosaur, especially from the Steven Spielberg's 1993 classic "Jurassic Park," you probably already know that the sound design in the movie wasn't easy.
Gary Rydstrom, a Lucasfilm sound designer and now director of the new George Lucas movie "Strange Magic," was tasked with creating dozens of dinosaur sounds from scratch using animal noises. The vocalizations of the velociraptors in "Jurassic Park" weren't the recordings of angry animals, Rydstrom told Vulture in 2013, but in fact rather less intimidating reptiles getting it on.

"It's somewhat embarrassing, but when the raptors bark at each other to communicate, it's a tortoise having sex," Rydstrom said. "It's a mating tortoise! I recorded that at Marine World...the people there said, 'Would you like to record these two tortoises that are mating?' It sounded like a joke, because tortoises mating can take a long time. You've got to have plenty of time to sit around and watch and record them."
Various other raptor noises in the movie were in fact recordings of horses breathing and annoyed geese.
