Alright so let's start with Cretaceous Cruise, you're swimming down a river full of giant dinosaurs, some of which are carnivorous, unprotected. I wonder how that would work. And from various promo photos there isn't a tour guide so what if they get lost or someone tries to take a Microceratus home or pet the Baryonyx? And don't say people wouldn't do this because I can tell you that if you give people the chance and they will do stupid stuff. No doubt about it.

Second is that a giant glass ball that we see getting smashed by Ankylosaurus in the movie, and I'm sure a rampaging Triceratops or an angry Apatosaur could smash it just as easily. Also, it's self controlled, meaning that if some jerk is in it and decides to run over a Parasaurolophus or take on a Triceratops, they could very easily. Also there's no override system so if there is an emergency, they can simply press a button and they'll all come back. Sure that takes away half the plot of the movie but it's pretty stupid.

Third is the Mosasaurus exhibit... What exactly is keeping it from smashing through the glass and eating everyone? And then there's the announcer girl standing above the Mosasaur just waiting to be eaten.

This fourth one isn't really a safety thing but more of a moral and publicity thing but Pachy arena? A place where you see dinosaurs being forced to fight each other. Now I'm sure they're alright with genetic altering skulls but wouldn't a human rights group try shutting them down for this? I mean its pretty cruel when you think about it.

Fifth is T-Rex Kingdom. See through glass next to where the hungry Rexy feeds, need I say more?

Sixth is Treetop Grazers. Sure it's not complete but from the concept, it's you being able to look a Brachiosaur in the eye. Judging from the photos, what if the sauropods hit the boardwalk? First off it would hurt the sauropod, and as a sauropod lover I would definitely take Masarani done for that but secondly is that what if people fall off then? A brachiosaurus is about 40ft tall, and that's a long drop, not sure if you'll die but you can definitely break some bones or get a concussion, or at the least possibly get stomped on by a sauropod.

Seventh is the Aviary. Now from promo images it seems pretty safe, you're surrounded by glass while being able to watch these amazing pterosaurs fly around you, but it's the thing on the website about how a funny story of a Pteranodon stole a man's hat, which brings a concern because it suggest either an open enclosure you can walk through or something like in the LEGO game where you can go out an observertory and watch them, either way being a bad idea because we saw how vicious these things can be.

That's all of the complaints I have with the actual park. You have to wonder what they were thinking. It seems that I picked out every way something could go wrong but remember that after the events of the last movies that chances are you'd want the park to be safe and these attractions don't seem safe. And if someone dies or gets hurt, no matter what their dinosaurs would be blamed and a lot of negative press would be pushed onto them. The other attractions do seem safe. Gallimimus Valley, you're in an armored vehicle driven by a park worker, and the Gallimimus and Edmontosaurus seem pretty friendly and even if they weren't they can't really stand much of a chance against an armored vehicle. Not sure if the Gondola had any dinosaurs in it but if it did, it's pretty safe as you'd be above any of the dinosaurs, being able to view them safely. So yeah, who did they hire to make these attractions? And if you say there's some type of force field or dinosaur repellant then I guess no one decided to put it on the Indominus enclosure. Even the attraction where you can feed and ride dinosaurs is safer! I mean there's various park workers to check on everyone, make sure no one is being stupid, and if a Trike gets mad, I'm sure they're trained to deal with the situation.

And don't get me wrong, even with these problems, I would still be the first one to buy a ticket to the park and stay there and never leave because dinosaurs Well, you do make some good points, but the danger is what makes it more exciting.
