Ralph was a young male Triceratops. Ralph was released into the Triceratops herd, where he was accepted by an adult Triceratops. Lex, a survivor of the Jurassic Park incident, befriended Ralph. Ralph was killed during the napalm bombing.
Story[]
Creation[]
Ralph was likely created inside the laboratory on Isla Sorna for Jurassic Park on the neighboring island Isla Nublar. Sometime before 1989 Ralph was transported to Isla Nublar to be housed in the Triceratops Territory attraction.
InGen Incident[]
Ralph was first spotted by Lex when he was eating grass outside of Lex, Tim and Dr. Grant's makeshift hideout. Despite being female, Ralph was named that way because they reminded Lex of a kid they knew from school. Later, Ralph left Lex and went with his mother to go look for food. Ralph was later killed during the napalm bombing.
Trivia[]

- Ralph was stated to have no horns in the novel.
- The filmmakers planned to have a scene where Lex rode a baby Triceratops (possibly Ralph) and even made an animatronic infant Triceratops for the scene, but it was cut out of the script late in production; the animatronic itself was later used for The Lost World: Jurassic Park.
