This would match up because all of the dinosaurs from the movie and website, except the debated Archaeornithomimus, appear on this holoscope. If that's true, then I still believe Archaeornithomimus may be planned to have been in the park, therefore it explains why a kid would try saying it's name because kids just don't say Archaeornithomimus out of nowhere. That would leave 4 open spaces for the Hadrosaurus, Hoplitosaurus, Lesothosaurus, and Nipponosaurus to be in the park. As for the last carnivore spot, I would say that Elaphrosaurus would be there because if they had Spinosaurus, why not sick it on the I-Rex, especially since I'm sure after the events of JP III that Grant and Erik told stories about how the Spinosaurus beat the T-Rex, therefore it would have made more sense to bring the Spinosaurus in the fight against the I-Rex, but rather I think it was being bred as a future attraction in the Restricted Area or after JP III, they decided to put a hologram of Spinosaurus in the Holoscope because it was likely a popular dinosaur after what was found out that it killed a T-Rex. Deinonychus probably wasn't in the park either cause in that universe it's just a velociraptor named differently. Not much appeal. Maybe it's not as smart so it was planned to be in the park as a safer alternative to the raptors. As for Allosaurus, I just feel like they would mention Allosaurus being in the park as its one of the most popular dinosaurs on the planet. So those 3 would be in the restricted zone being raised and prepared as an attraction, as we all see that they plan things years ahead, with the I-Rex paddock and Treetop Grazers. And then Ceratosaurus was just for a toy. I think that Compsognathus and Troodon are on the island but in the restricted zone. Cause after InGen fell,mom sure that the story of a girl being attacked by Compies would get a bad image on that dinosaur and therefore the park wouldn't add that dinosaur into the park. Sure T-Rex at people but she's the queen and the most popular dinosaur on the planet. It's like a rockstar, no matter what it does, everyone still loves it. Sure the Raptors killed a lot of people but they were being trained away from visitors to see if they could be a suitable exhibit, or possibly it was just a military program on the island with no plans of being an attraction. So Compies weren't likely in the park but still in the restricted zone. Troodons, let's face it they were cool but as you saw in the game, they were way too dangerous for an attraction. Whatever happened to the other dinosaurs in the original Jurassic Park (Segisaurus, Proceratosaurus, and Herrerasaurus) no clue but I'm willing to say they probably died out, I mean Rexy could hold her own against the herbivores and carnivores in the park, Baryonyx and Metricanthosaurus aren't exactly small Dino's but could have been at least scavengers if need be, Troodon was too smart for any of the dinosaurs, and Compsognathus likely ate insects, rats, or scavenged for food, but the others couldn't compete, not being as strong as a T-Rex or as smart as a raptor, they probably died out. That's why I didn't say that Dilophosaurus was recaptured because I'm pretty sure that it died out with them but was recreated in Jurassic Workd later, maybe by some bones or something.

So to sum it all up, in my opinion, the 6 carnivores are Baryonyx, Dilophosaurus, Elaphrosaurus, Metricanthosaurus, Suchomimus, and Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the 14 herbivores are Ankylosaurus, Apatosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Gallimimus, Hadrosaurus, Hoplitosaurus, Lesothosaurus, Microceratus, Nipponosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, and Triceratops, with Spinosaurus, Allosaurus, Denonychus, Archaeornithomimus, and Indominus Rex being planned to have been in the park at a later date, both Troodon and Compsognathus living in the restricted Zone of the park being uncaptured due to the fact that it could hurt the park's image, and the Raptors were there as a test and not as an attraction (although a test for military purposes or a future Raptor attraction is not clear) And let's not forget Mosasaurus, Dimorphodon, and Pteranodon being in the park with possibly Plesiosaurus. Very good post D9 fan... However there is something I must contest (as always :P).

First of all I don't think Elaphrosaurus is the sixth carnivore, because of the fact it is not such a popular dinsoaur and we know really little about it... I strongly believe that if InGen scientists recreated Elaphrosaurus, they would study it for years in the restricted Zone, before putting it in the restricted Zone. So Elaphrosaurus is probably in the restricted Zone. I agree that both Spinosaurus and Allosaurus are unlikely to be the sixth carnivore. The sixth carnivore may be Deinonychus, beause it is a sort of "Velociraoptor abridged version", so like you said a "safer alternative to Velociraptor". Also I want to specify that Velociraptor in "Jurassic Park" series is meant to be Deinonychus in the first book, but is actually an Achillobator, since its DNA comes from Mongolia while Deinonychus is a North American species. They're also much more popular than Elpahrosaurus, but not so popular as Allosaurus.

I agree about the herbivores and... yeah, Archaeornitomimus may be in the restricted Zone, much like Allosaurus, Elaphrosaurus and Spinosaurus.

Compsognathus, Troodon and Velociraptor (do you remember the Scarred Raptor Leader and her three subordinates?) may be in the restricted Zone, but it is also possible InGen decided to kill them, because of their dangerousness.

About the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park, I agree that Herrerasaurus and Proceratosaurus could not compete with Rexy, they were not intelligent as raptors and couldn't be scavengers. However Segisaurus was extremely similar to Procompsognathus, so it was likely a scavenger. I speculated that Compsognathus and Segisaurus often came into conflcit over food and Compsognathus were more aggressive so Segisaurus died off, while they survived. According to scientists Baryonyx was mainly a piscivore and a scavenger, but it seems strange Metriacanthosaurs became a scavenger, since it is related to the notorious Allosaurus. However this is the only possible explanation for its survival. Troodon and Velociraptor certainly survived because of their intelligence. And I think also Dilophosaurus survived because scientists speculated it was either a scavenger or a piscivore.

Instead I think that Brachiosaurus died out. Look at the two pictures.



They look really different. I assumed Brachiosaurus died out from natural causes and was later recreated for Jurassic World.

And finally, I think Plesiosaurus is not in  the park, but is planned to be there in a future attraction, because everyone in the world would see Loch Ness Monster.

So here's what I think...

The 6 carnivores are: Baryonyx, Deinonychus, Dilophosaurus, Suchomimus, Metriacanthosaurus and Rexy. The 14 herbivores are: Ankylosaurus, Apatosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Gallimimus, Hadrosaurus, Hoplitosaurus, Lesothosaurus, Microceratus, Nipponosaurus. Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus and Triceratops. Then Indominus rex, Allosaurus, Archaeornithomimus, Elaphrosaurus and Spinosaurus are planned to appear in future attractions. Blue's pack live in the restricted Zone, and Compsognathus, Troodons and the Scarred Raptor Leader's pack possibly live there, too.

The 8 original dinosaurus are: Baryonyx, Dilophosaurus, Gallimimus, Metriacanthosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Triceratops and Rexy.
