"Pachycephalosaurus!"

"Carnivore?"

"Huh...No, No. Herbivore, Late Cretaceous."

Veterinarian and Burke discussing the Pachycephalosaurus.


This Veterinarian was hired by Peter Ludlow on his expedition to Isla Sorna to capture dinosaurs for his Jurassic Park: San Diego. While on the game trail he accompanied the team's lead paleontologist, Dr. Robert Burke. When they witnessed a group trying to wrangle a juvenile Pachycephalosaurus they stopped their jeep and jumped out to witness the animal. While Burke said some facts the veterinarian looked up the Pachycephalosaurus in his field guide. After Hammond's and Ludlow's team were united after the Tyrannosaur attack both groups set off the to the Worker Village to contact for help. While stopping to rest, the Buck Tyrannosaurus entered the camp looking for it's infant. After waking up the group ran off with the Doe in pursuit, which resulted in Burke's death. After escaping the Tyrannosaurus the group ran into the long grass where unknown to them a pack of Velociraptors waited to ambush. The veterinarian likely fell victim to the raptor's ambush along with the rest of the team.

Trivia[]

In the original script for the film the Tyrannosaur Doe was to grab the veterinarian in her jaws and thrashed him breaking his neck before throwing and knocking Carter over. This would result in Carter's death as he gets trampled by the Doe.
