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 This park is still safe trough:

1. Cretaceous Cruise: You might think you're not safe in there because the carnivores. However, Baryonyx and Suchomimus may have only eats fish, and Metriacanthosaurus can't attack you since it can't swim. There could be a security check in the exit so don't worry about people taking Microceratus home

2. Gyrosphere: It said tge gyrosphere will back off automatically if the gyrosphere went too close the dinosaurs. It actually can withstand other dinosaurs attack since it had armor (except Indominus Rex).

3. Mosasaurus Feeding Show: You don't have to worry if the anouncer gets eaten because the Mosasaurus has been fed with a giant shark. While the Underwater Observatory seats lowered down, the Mosasaurus is still eating a shark. So it has no interest in visitors.

4.Pachy Arena: It's not cruel, it's behavior. Pachycephalosaurus did that for dominance. And they all felt just fine.

5. T-rex kingdom: The building where you could watfh Rexy feeds is a hollow log. So it cannot see you. Even if she can, Rexy can't get you because you're protected with thick glass.

6. Treetop Gazers: You can see the canopy walking is as tall as the Brachiosaurus's neck. And the Brachiosaurus can't crush with it's neck. And even if it crashes it, it will jot feel pain

7. Aviary: The Pteranodons and Dimorphodons attack people because they're in panic. While in the Aviary, they will not disturbed by anything.

So I answer all your complains in the park. Hope you will enjoy the park!

About the Cretaceous Cruise, Baryonyx and Suchomimus ate more than just fish. I watched BBC's Spinosaurus episode, and it showed that Spinosaurus and its relatives Irritator, Baryonyx, Suchomimus, Oxalaia, and Siamosaurus at more than just fish like Onchopristis: they ate pterosaurs, medium-sized dinosaurs, like Hadrosaurs and Ouranosaurus, and even smaller predators. That probably means that they won't refuse to eat people (hopefully they don't.).

The Gyrosphere is somewhat safe, but it still might be a bad idea to put them in a field full of herbivorous and a few carnivorous dinosaurs. Apatosaurus, Stegosaurus, Gallimimus, Microceratus, Edmontosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, and other herbivorous dinosaurs may be completely fine with the Gyrospheres (unless they are provoked), but Metriacanthosaurus may band together in a group to attack the Gyropshere, maybe even reaching the people inside it, due to their manueverability, small size, and speed. They can attack herbivores slightly larger than themselves, after all, so why would a Gyrosphere be any different(other than its glass)?

No problems with the Mosasaurus Feeding show. Same thing with the Pachy Arena and Treetop Grazers.

As For the T-Rex Kingdom, Rexy is very aggressive, and she doesn't care if the 'glass' is tough or not. Sure, she is distracted by goats, but if she is hungry, she might be break out. I wonder if Jurassic World had some incidents involving her...

The Aviary may be a tiny bit safe, but let's discuss the pterosaurs in it: The Dimorphodon and Pteranodon. In the movie, they both peacefully coexisted, despite them living in different time periods and different taxonomical features. Both of them are aggressive, as they attacked the visitors. However, in real life, Dimorphodon, unless provoked, was nothing but a gentle flyer that somehow coexisted with the dangerous Pteranodon. You can even cuddle with this thing, despite its huge head, and it wouldn't bite; it only ate creatures smaller than itself and in some cases carcasses. Pteranodon would do nothing but probably, if they are aggressive enough, break through the glass, get out by the tunnel, and cause chaos. Have fun, though.

So I have discussed probably all the possible cons of the attractions. Hopefully this will set up some safety guidelines for the dinos and visitors.
