Steven Spielberg poses with a 'dead' Triceratops.
Steven Spielberg has found himself at the centre of a Facebook prank after one user shared a snap of the director sitting next to a 'dead' dinosaur on the set of Jurassic Park.
Jay Branscomb jokingly shamed Spielberg for hunting down the animal.
Last week Branscomb uploaded the image of
the filmmaker with a mechanical Triceratops, taken on the set of the 1993 blockbuster.
He sarcastically wrote in the caption: "Disgraceful photo of recreational hunter happily posing next to a Triceratops he just slaughtered. Please share so the world can name and shame this despicable man."
The snapshot was re-posted more than 33,000 times, and attracted some harsh criticism for Spielberg for apparently killing an innocent animal, despite the fact dinosaurs became extinct 66 million years ago.
