Jhayk is right, there were never any natives on Isla Nublar in the novel or it's sequel. The Costa Rican locals, commonly referred to as "Ticans" used to call it Cloud Island, or Isla Nublar. Many of the Ticans were employed by InGen to work on the project, but the Island was a Seamount, not a true "Island", rising on volcanic vents that would eventually form a chain out in the South Pacific. As a matter of fact, InGen never actually purchased the island at all in the novel's, the Hammond Foundation leased it from the Costa Rican Government in 1979
