If, however, you time the tame to finish as the shrink occurs, for example with a fading freeze trap or an Entrapment Frost Trap at max range, you can get a mini-raptor pet. Be aware, though, that this is a hidden buff that fades with your (or the pet's) death.

Mini Raptor Pet (Temporary Lols)
So I had the quest "Waptor Twapping" near Ratchet today. The trap is laid, calls nearby raptors, and shrinks them but at the same time turns them friendly, cancelling any tame in progress.

Re: Mini Raptor Pet (Temporary Lols)
i managed to do it twice (had someone else place trap when at 3,5 secs or somehting alike), but i'm afraid the tinyness dissapeared each time after a couple of mins

Does this mean that the 'oily coat' fades after you or the pet dies?

No, that one stays--there's a few that do, but this one does not, sadly.
Re: Mini Raptor Pet (Temporary Lols)
I might have to resubscribe just to get this one. What's the time on the trap?

WoW, where is my KAMEN RIDER BEETLE LARVA PET?

Re: Mini Raptor Pet (Temporary Lols)
Try timing it so the raptor hits the "mini" trap right as the tame completes. That said, I only kept it for 15 minutes or so before testing death--and a few people have said that their raptors "grew up" after 5. So I wouldn't resubscribe just for this! (It's a few minutes at worse, or until pet death at best, apparently)

Funny quest 
Too sad that rapotr companions aren't like that ^^
