- Hi everybody!
AFAIK, there's no 1 place online for comparing the dinos in "Jurassic Park" & "The Lost World: Jurassic Park" (henceforth JP & JP2) to their real-life counterparts both as we knew them then (in the 1990s) & as we know them now (post-"Jurassic World"), hence this journal entry: For then, I downloaded the following images from Zebest's "2-D Dinosaurs" ( https://www.flickr.com/photos/orinrobertjohn/sets/72157594252701883/ ) & uploaded them here; Said images are originally from Wallace's "Familiar Dinosaurs", 1 of the best children's natural histories of dinos ( https://www.deviantart.com/jd-man/journal/SD-Top-4-children-s-natural-histories-of-dinos-924726008 ); For now, I linked to Lanzas's "Jurassic Word dinosaurs VS Originary Dinosaurs"; Lanzas also has a DeviantArt (hence the cover image, which is my favorite example of his JP-related work: https://www.deviantart.com/mariolanzas/art/VELOCIRAPTOR-Jurassic-Park-and-other-relatives-945855334 ).
Cheers,

JP dinos then:
-Brachiosaurus
-Deinonychus...
...& Velociraptor ("The first thing that must be established when talking about the raptors of the Jurassic Park universe and this is that they are not Velociraptor. The design was instead based on a larger animal from the same family, known as Deinonychus": https://jurassicparkterror.net/jurassic-park-dinosaurs/#deinonychus-velociraptor )
-Dilophosaurus
-Gallimimus
-T. rex (hunting Edmontosaurus)
-Triceratops
JP2 dinos then:
-Compsognathus
-Mamenchisaurus...
...& Seismosaurus ("The Lost World briefly featured another sauropod that promotional material and other media since have referred to as Mamenchisaurus. However, production notes from the film indicate the CGI model was probably designed to be a “Seismosaurus,” which was the largest known sauropod at the time": https://jurassicparkterror.net/jurassic-park-dinosaurs/#diplodocus-mamenchisaurus )
-Pachycephalosaurus
-Parasaurolophus
-Stegosaurus

| UPDATE: I've since added context to the Velociraptor part, plus Seismosaurus, whose inclusion I debated. | |
