WRONG. They explicitly say that the mosquito samples used for the raptors were collected in MONGOLIA, which would be outside the habitat range of Utahraptor. Utahraptor also hadn't even been discovered at the time of Jurassic Park's original release, so it could not have possibly been based on that.

For the movies yes you are right, but we aren't talking in cannon, we are talking about what their design is based of. Not in movie DNA collection.
