I was thinking they could start with something smaller. Perhaps a dodo or a passenger pigeon..

Jurassic? More like Early Holoscene. Of course, you don’t expect “journalists” to know anything about geological ages. They think anything before the Kennedy administration was part of the Jurassic.

Dr. Ian Malcolm: “Oooh! Ahhh! That’s how it always starts. Then later there’s running and screaming.”

Still, I want to go see it!

I still use the JP movies as examples for kids when Silly Hollywood Plots and the suspension of disbelief come up. Assuming the basic premise of the movies, any rational actor would have on call some heavy weaponry capable of putting down the big, bad beasties, a couple of tracked armored vehicles, a reliable aerial capability, some secure safe rooms in strategic locations, etc. It really wouldn't take much, and it would be a pittance given the scale of the park. A couple of Bradley's would handle the ground component. (One to kill the T-Rex, and the other for backup when the scriptwriters make the first one break down.

My other favorite example is monster or horror films where the designated victims split up at the first sign of trouble, usually so they can expand a search of some kind. My daughters used to get frustrated with me for laughing through these kinds of movies. I always told them that people that stupid deserve to die. They're old enough now to take the point.

2000 lb, 40mph, standing 14 feet - the short faced bear. Can't have prey without predators.

Why stop there? Clone some neanderthals to put in the park and we can have a real show.

Heck, I would have fitted all the dinos with explosive collars so I could neutralize them by remote in an emergency.

Woolly mammoths didn’t wipe out huge swaths of humanity, they fed huge swaths of humanity. You cannot compare the two.

We can throw them in an arena with the cave lions like the Romans did with the slaves.

When scientists decide they are smarter then mother nature it is a problem. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

Don’t we have them already and aren’t they putting on a show.

Just look at the Judicial hearings.
