Fauna

Life exists in our planet for hundreds of thousands of years by now, and still thrives in many different ways, one of the predominant major groups is the Fauna, Animals. The particular group that is presented in the Jurassic Park Franchise of course is Dinosauria, a large Clade that contains a vast diversity of Dinosaurs, with Theropods, Sauropods and Ornithischians.

The Theropods consist primarily of bipedal and agile predators, evolving from tiny ancestors such as Coelophysis or Herrerasaurus back in the Triassic Period, reaching prime species even seen in the films such as the Tyrannosaurus or Giganotosaurus.
The Sauropods contain some of the largest animals to ever walk the Earth, their story, like Theropods, began back in the Triassic with animals such as Mussaurus, reaching the Jurassic Period with large behemoths like Mamenchisaurus and Apatosaurus.
Ornithischians consist a fairly odd group of dinosaurs, most of which had some sort of beak and relied on walking quadrupedally. Species such as Triceratops and Parasaurolophus belong to this group, but more unusual ones such as Pachycephalosaurus are also present.

It is not just Dinosaurs that were presented in the Jurassic Franchise, various different groups such as Marine Reptiles (Including Mosasaurus itself), Pterosaurs (Including animals such as Dimorphodon and Quetzalcoatlus), or even Mammals and Arthropods like the Smilodon, Nublar's Tufted Deer and Biosyn's Locust! All this diversity is shown in this page, alongside the various different breeds and morphological variants those species may have presented over the last 30 years;

Red-Headed Ankylosaurus

Endemic to Isla Sorna, the Red-Headed Ankylosaurus is a obscure yet remarkable inhabitant of Site B, first seen in 2001 by Dr. Grant and the Kirbys.

Greater Brachiosaurus

The first ever living, breathing dinosaur shown to Drs. Grant and Sattler, the Greater Brachiosaurus is a marvelous inhabitant of John Hammond's Jurassic Park.

Ceratosaurus

The Ceratosaurus was one of the various Theropods cloned by Ingen, this survivor species from the early 2000s was present in many Islands nearby Costa Rica and is characterized by its iconic snout horn.

Compsognathus

Currently the smallest dinosaur seen in the franchise, the "Compy" is a tiny bird-like theropod that once inhabited Isla Sorna, but has now proliferated throughout the globe.

Dilophosaurus

Living in the lush jungles of Isla Nublar is the Dilophosaurus, this exotic greenish colored predator sports unique frills and the ability to spit a paralyzing venom to hunt its prey.

Giganotosaurus

The biggest Carnivore the world has ever seen. The Apex of the Biosyn Valley. The Giganotosaurus was a large Theropod Dinosaur that once inhabited the Cretaceous of South America.

Iguanodon

The most recent Ornithischian introduced to the Jurassic Franchise, the Iguanodon is an iconic dinosaur endemic to Biosyn Valley.

Monolophosaurus

One of the many species that were yet to be shown at Jurassic World, the Monolophosaurus is a basal Theropod with an exuberant crest and loner temper.

Oviraptor

The elegant yet very skittish Oviraptor, first shown to fight in the pits of Malta, this feathery small Dinosaur was one of the various Species introduced when Genetic Power was set loose.

Blueback Parasaurolophus

One of the first Dinosaurs shown to Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler, the Blueback Parasaurolophus is one of the many breeds the Hadrosaur had over the years at Isla Nublar.

Highland Pteranodon

The most aggressive of the three Pteranodon breeds, the Highland Pteranodon is a large territorial flyer with an intimidating appearance, inhabiting the cliffs of Isla Sorna.

Tylosaurus

Mosasaurus' older cousin, the Tylosaurus was an addition planned for Jurassic Park back in the 90s, intended to live inside underwater cave systems.

Lowland Velociraptor

As its name suggests, this vicious predator, the Lowland Velociraptor, is one of the various breeds that inhabited many grassland regions of the Jurassic Park Islands.

Atrociraptor

Cloned and trained for killing, the Atrociraptor is a large Dromaeosaur found in Malta. Controlled by Soyona Santos, these aggressive Raptors were one of the many animals that lived in Malta.

Sorna's Brachiosaurus

Endemic to Isla Sorna, and its namesake, the Sorna's Brachiosaurus is an exotic breed present on Site B, sporting a characteristic green body and red markings on its face.

An agile bipedal theropod, the Gallimimus is one of the various unique species cloned by Ingen for Jurassic Park. The White-Footed Gallimimus is known for its distinct white limbs and striping.

Herrerasaurus

Once an apex predator during the Triassic period, the Herrerasaurus is one of the oldest cloned Prehistoric Animals in the Jurassic Park franchise. Briefly seen in Jurassic Park The Game.

Biosyn's Locust

A prehistoric plague 65 millions of years in the making. The "Hexapod Allies" as they were formerly called, are a prime example of when the worst ideas are made with the best intentions..

Nasutoceratops

The Nasutoceratops was one of the first Dinosaur encounters in the mainland after the events of 2018. This medium-sized Ceratopsid differs from Triceratops thanks to its longer dual horns and round snout.
