Better to use a deterrant, such as T-Rex urine. I usedta have a brother in law who used to milk rattlesnake venom and collect T Rex urine. He was a good man *wipes mist from eyes*.

Based on the extreme rarity of said bigfoot, I would have to say that bigfoot is not a very successful predator. Not successful enough to breed, anyways. So, what your saying is that Bigfoot, Bigfeet?, aren't much for fighting. And ... failing to breed, not much as lovers either. No wonder we don't see many of them. If I was a failure on both counts I would stay out of sight also.

There were are a wide variety of Raptors that come in many sizes from the smaller Velociraptor, which was about the size of a turkey, to the later discovered Utahraptor, which was about 7' high and 21' long.
So, defense strategies would depend on what particular raptor you were facing. The main defense I would suggest, which is applicable to all forms of dinosaur, is not to travel back in time.

I'd say you are more likely to collect Bigfoot pee these days than that of any dinosaur...
The whole urine as a deterrent thing is a bit pavlovian, in that the scent has to be associated with a known threat, thus my previous statement that where you are on the food chain will determine what sort of pee you will be afraid of. Bears being at the top of the food chain in the natural environment aren't going to be scared of much else except maybe another bear, and yes, bears mark territory as well, using all sorts of excrements. Typically bear scat is the most telling sign of the size of a bear; the bigger the pile, the larger the bruin that made it. For that reason, I prefer to eat heartily while playing out in the woods, thus being able to leave a mark that would "scare a bear", heh heh heh...

"...urine as a deterrent thing..."
I once read a book by a gal trying to hike the Pacific Crest Trail alone. She got into the Sierra, and was worried about bears. She had heard about the uring deterrent thing, so decided to give it a try. Her description of trying to waddle around her tent, peeing all the while, was a hoot!!!
