Herrerasaurus 2 of 2
“So what did you call those things that were chasing you? Hairy-saurauses?”“Herrerasaurus, from the Triassic era.

Gallimimus
“Some of these animals present a real test of our abilities. Take, for instance, this latest dinosaur, the Gallimimus. It’s an opportunistic omnivore that does best in groups – that alone isn’t the problem. But the speed… Gallimimus is incredibly fast, which presents special challenges for the ranger teams tasked with monitoring them.”– Tim Murphy […]

Dilophosaurus 1 of 4
“One of the earliest carnivores, we now know that Dilophosaurus is actually poisonous, spitting its venom at its prey, causing blindness and eventually paralysis, allowing the carnivore to eat at its leisure. This makes Dilophosaurus a beautiful, but deadly, addition to Jurassic Park.”— Richard Kiley talking about Dilophosaurus on the tour. Dilophosaurus was one of […]
