Dinosaur Gallery & Descriptions

The Archaeopteryx was a small, bird-like dinosaur that had both feathers and sharp claws. It lived in warm, tropical to subtropical forests. The best temperature for it is 77-86C, with 60-80% humidity. It needs a habitat with trees, open spaces, and access to small prey. Each Archaeopteryx needs at least 1 acre and 15 meters of vertical space for flying and sitting. It enjoys branches, rocks, and logs for climbing and resting. It hunts insects, small lizards, and fish, so live food will be provided. Archaeopteryx can live with small reptiles, early mammals, and insects, but not with larger predators.Archaeopteryx lived for 10-15 years. It's stages: Hatchling (0-2 months), Juvenile (2 months - 1 year), Pre-adult (1-2 years), Adult (2+ years). Archaeopteryx could start breeding at 2-3 years old and stop around 10 years old. It was monogamous, which means it forms long term pairs. It built nests in trees or rocky areas to keep eggs safe.

The Archaeopteryx's body was about 1.6 ft long, with a 2.3 wingspan, and weighed 1.8-2.2 lbs. Its skeleton was similar to modern birds, but also to dinosaurs like the Velociraptor. It could jump 5 feet to reach branches/perches. It could float in water for about 1-2 minutes but was not a strong swimmer. It needed 5-7 meters of space to take off and usually flew at 33-66 feet above the ground. On land, it could run at 10-15 mph for 10-20 seconds to escape danger. The park must keep the habitat at 77-86F and 60-80% humidity. The enclosure must have 15 meters of height to allow flying and must prevent escape. Archaeopteryx needs live prey for food and should live in small groups of 2-4 individuals to prevent stress.

The scientific name of this dinosaur is Tyrannosaurus rex, and its common name is T-rex. It was a large, carnivorous dinosaur known for its short arms, speed and quick bite. Known as one of the most ferocious dinosaurs to exist. The T-rex lived in warm, humid areas with forests and open plains. The best temperature for this dinosaur is between 65-80 Fahrenheit, with humidity levels of 50-70%. It needed a habitat with both trees for shade and open land to hunt. A T-rex requires at least 2 acres of space to move freely. It needed large, strong barriers to prevent escape. It can live with other large predators if there is enough space, but keeping multiple T-rex together is risky since they may fight. The T-rex lived for 25-30 years. Hatchling (0-2 years), Juvenile (2 year - 10 year), Pre-adult (10-15 year), and Adult (15+ years). The T-rex could start having babies at around 15-18 years old and stop around 25 years old. They may have been polygamous, with males and females only coming together to mate. Nests were likely made on the ground, and eggs were protected by the mother.

The T-rex was about 40 feet long and 12-15 feet tall at the hips. It weighed between 9-15 tons. Its skeleton was similar to other large meat-eating dinosaurs but had a much stronger skull and bite force. Its small arms were not very useful, but its strong legs and tail help it balance while running. The T-rex could not jump due to its size. It could not swim well but could cross shallow water if needed. It did not fly. On land, it could run at speeds of about 15-25 mph for short distances while chasing prey. It was a strong predator but relied more on ambush attacks than long chases. Keeping the temperature between 65-80 Fahrenheit and humidity at 50-70% is important for T-rex. It needs a large, open space for movement and hunting. The park must have strong fences to prevent escapes and should be careful when keeping multiple T-rex together. It needs a steady supply of meat, and its enclosure should have enough space for it to move naturally.

The scientific name of this dinosaur is Baryonyx walkeri, and its common name is Baryonyx. It was a large, carnivorous dinosaur known for its long, crocodile-like snout and powerful claws. The Baryonyx lived in warm, wet environments during the Early Cretaceous period. The ideal temperature for this dinosaur is between 70-80 Fahrenheit, with a humidity level of 60-70%. It needed a habitat with rivers, lakes, or marshy areas for hunting fish and other aquatic prey. Baryonyx herds could have at least 2 acres of space and 10 meters of vertical space for climbing and hunting. It can share an ecosystem with other carnivores, as long as there is enough food, but it should not be kept with smaller animals that could be easily hunted. The Baryonyx lived for 25-30 years. Hatchling (0-1 year), Juvenile (1 year - 5 year), Pre-adult (5-12 year), and Adult (12+ years). The Baryonyx could begin reproducing at around 10-12 years old and would stop reproducing around 20-25 years old. It was likely polygamous, with males competing for mates. Nests were probably built near water, where the eggs could be hidden and protected from predators.

The Baryonyx had a body length of about 26-33 feet and a height of around 10-12 feet. It weighed around 1-2 tons. Its skeleton was similar to other theropods but had a long, slender body and a large claw on each hand, perfect for catching fish and other prey. The Baryonyx could not jump high due to its size, but it could make quick, short leaps of about 2-3 feet to grab prey. It was a fast runner, capable of reaching speeds of about 25-30 mph for short bursts. Baryonyx was also a strong swimmer and could swim across rivers and lakes to hunt or escape danger. It could not fly. The park needs to keep the temperature between 70-80 Fahrenheit and maintain a humidity of 60-70%. The enclosure should have access to water sources, like rivers or ponds, where Baryonyx can hunt and drink. Special care should be taken to ensure there is enough food, especially fish, to sustain this carnivorous dinosaur. Overcrowding must be avoided, especially with other carnivores, to ensure there is enough space and food for each animal.

The scientific name of this dinosaur is Triceratops horridus, and its common name is Triceratops. It was a large, horned dinosaur known for its protective frill and powerful charge. Triceratops lived in open grasslands and forests with moderate vegetation. The best temperature for this dinosaur is between 60-80 Fahrenheit. It requires at least 2 acres per individual to roam and graze. A large water source is needed for drinking and cooling off. It can live in herds but may become aggressive if space is limited. It's Life Cycle: Triceratops lived for 70 years. Hatchling (0-3 years), Juvenile (3 years - 10 years), Pre-adult (10-15 years), Adult (15+ years). It could start reproducing at around 15 years old and continue through its life. It laid eggs in ground nests, and the young stayed with the herd for protection. It was not monogamous and mated in groups.

The Triceratops was about 30 feet long and 10 feet tall at the shoulders. It weighed around 12 tons. Its skeleton was similar to other plant-eating dinosaurs but had a strong skull with three sharp horns. Its frill helped protect it from predators. Capabilities of the Triceratops was that it could not jump due to its size. It could wade through shallow water but could not swim. It did not fly. On land, it could run at speeds of about 20 mph for short distances, mainly for defense or charging at threats.

It needs a reinforced enclosure with fences at least 12 feet high to prevent charging accidents. The park must make sure it has enough space to reduce stress and aggression. Roads and pathways must be built strong enough to handle its weight.

The scientific name of this dinosaur is Velociraptor mongoliensis, and its common name is Velociraptor. It was a small, fast predator known for its sharp claws and intelligence. It lived in dry, warm environments with rocky terrain and sparse vegetation. The best temperature for this dinosaur is between 70-95 Fahrenheit. It requires at least 1 acre per individual for movement and hunting behaviors. It needs shaded areas and climbing structures for enrichment. It cannot live with other carnivores unless carefully monitored. The Life Cycle: Velociraptor lived for 20 years.  Hatchling (0-1 year),  Juvenile (1 years - 3 years), Pre-adult (3-5 years), Adult (5+ years). It could start reproducing at around 5 years old and continued throughout its life. It laid eggs in ground nests and could produce multiple clutches per year. It was not monogamous and changed mates frequently.

The Velociraptor was about 6 feet long and 2 feet tall at the hips. It weighed around 30 pounds. Its skeleton was similar to birds, with hollow bones and a long, stiff tail for balance. It had large, curved claws used for hunting. It could jump over 10 feet high. It could move through shallow water but was not a strong swimmer. It did not fly. On land, it could run at speeds of about 24 mph, using its speed and intelligence to hunt prey. It is highly intelligent and may attempt to escape, requiring enclosures with 15 foot electrified fences and motion sensors. The park must prevent direct human interaction to reduce injury risks. Constant monitoring and strong security systems are necessary to prevent breaches.

The scientific name of this dinosaur is Brontosaurus excelsus, and its common name is Brontosaurus. It was a massive, plant-eating dinosaur known for its long neck and tail. It was one of the largest land animals to ever exist. It lived in warm, humid environments with forests and open plains. The best temperature for this dinosaur is between 65-85 Fahrenheit. It requires at least 2.1 acres of space per individual for movement and feeding. It needs access to large water sources like lakes or rivers for hydration. It can live in groups but needs enough space to avoid overcrowding. It's Life Cycle: It lived for 80 years.  Hatchling (0-5 years), Juvenile (5 years - 20 years), Pre-adult (20-15 years), Adult (25+ years). It could start reproducing at around 25 years old and continued throughout its life. It laid eggs in large nesting areas, and females likely protected them until they hatched. It was not monogamous and mated seasonally.

The Brontosaurus was about 70 feet long and 15 feet tall at the shoulders. It weighed around 30 tons. Its skeleton was similar to other long-necked dinosaurs, but its tail helped balance its heavy body. Its long neck allowed it to eat leaves from tall trees.

It could not jump due to its size. It could move through water up to 6 feet deep but could not swim. It did not fly. On land, it moved at about 10-12 mph but could not run fast due to its massive weight. It requires large amounts of food, so the park must provide a good amount of vegetation. Strong fencing at least 15 feet high is needed to prevent accidental escapes. Roads and infrastructure must be built to support its heavy weight without sinking into the ground.
