I got the the Dolphin from Wikipedia's List of Fairy Chess Pieces, which credits it to a 1982 Russian game called Falconry (though I haven't been able to find any other information about that game, except that it also has a Falcon -- obvioiusly -- with a CB3 move).
I haven't figured out where to put a Velociraptor in one of my games yet; it'll likely land in a Dealer's Chess expansion before anywhere else.
