In both of the original books by Michael Crichton, there was an unresolved side-plot regarding dinosaurs that had already escaped to the mainland. This definitely has the potential for a future Jurassic World movie.

Some examples include: The scene in the beginning of the second movie where the little girl is attacked by a flock of tiny Compsognathus on the beach of Isla Sonar, is actually a scene taken from the first book, not on the island, but on the mainland, before the infamous events in the park even occur!

In another prologue scene, a doctor in a South American clinic discovers that a newborn infant has been killed by a small two-legged green lizard with a bird-like chirp. The doctor researches and discovers that an unusual number of stillbirths have been recorded in recent months. It's later revealed that these dinosaurs have also attacked the elderly.

In the end of 'The Lost World', the characters in the book are confronted by a government agency who ask their aid in dealing with growing dinosaur populations in the jungles of South America.

In the 'Lost World' movie, there is a scene where the remains of a ship's crew are scattered throughout the deck. Supposedly, in a cut scene, the ship was attacked by Velociraptors. In one of the books, a rescue-boat is kept from shore by a pack of raptors attempting to leave the island.

And lastly, in the very end of the movie Jurassic Park III, we see a flock of Pterodactyls soaring away to new nesting grounds.

"If there is one thing the history of evolution has taught us it's that life will not be contained. Life breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously... I'm simply saying that life, finds a way."- Dr. Ian Malcolm
