I think to work with the notion that they are one in the same because a newly evolved raptor works within the realm of JP continuity, what with the DNA tampering.
Two different species. Even in the Trespasser game they acknowledged this.
This guy knows what's up.
Even from the behavior we can tell they're different species.
The ones from JP are extremely aggressive, and attack not to feed, but to kill. They hunt for pleasure.
The ones from TLW behave exactly alike. Examples include the long grass scene where the hunters were hunted by the velociraptors and killed for no reason. There was even a scene, when Sarah pulls the tiles off a hut's roof, where a Nublar falls onto another Nublar and they both fight. The two were male and female, fighting. (Now, here's where the proof comes in that they were the same species from the first movie.)
In that scene we see a pure brown velociraptor. This is the female. How do I know it's female? The velociraptors from the first film are brown as well, and they were all female.
The other velociraptor fighting the female is the new tiger-striped varient. This is the male. They appeared only in this movie. (Since this movie is trying to show a dinosaur ecosystem, not a park, with male and female varients of each dinosaur.)
Still don't believe me? Let's take a look at this picture...
See the brown in the middle back, in front of the one in the trees? That's the female. The one on the left is the male.
And this is a female from the first movie;
And here are both the male, and female versions in Jurassic Park III.
These are the males.
And these are the females.
They in no way resemble the other velociraptors from the previous movies except for the simple fact that they are raptors, too. And how can a species of velociraptor evolve in like, what, seven years, into a completely differently behaved animal? They can't.
