| 1 | [[header:Prehistoric Park Notable Animals]] |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Amongst the many prehistoric animals rescued from extinction and put on display at the park, these particular individuals play particularly notable roles in the narrative. |
| 4 | ---- |
| 5 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 6 | |
| 7 | [[folder:General]] |
| 8 | |
| 9 | The residents of the titular park - whilst not always well-behaved, they have adapted well to the present, bonding with both the humans who care or them and each other. |
| 10 | ---- |
| 11 | * AllAnimalsAreDomesticated: {{Averted|Trope}}. Whilst they can form close bonds with certain individual humans, they are most emphatically ''not'' tame. |
| 12 | * ExtinctAnimalPark: The residents of one. |
| 13 | * UncattyResemblance: Many of the animals mirror the temperament of a human they have bonded with closely. |
| 14 | [[/folder]] |
| 15 | |
| 16 | !Arthropoda |
| 17 | |
| 18 | !!Myriapoda |
| 19 | [[folder:Felix]] |
| 20 | An adult male arthropleura rescued in ''Alien Empire''. First introduced when he is accidentally startled by Leon stepping a little ''too close'' to him for comfort, and is subsequently sent through the portal once he's calmed down. |
| 21 | ---- |
| 22 | * AdaptationalNameChange: He was called Incursio in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 23 | * AscendedExtra: Whilst he's not ''as'' prominent as some of the other animals, he has a much larger role later in the story (including forming a bond with ''Nikolai'') compared to his Prehistoric Earth counterpart Incursio, who did not appear after his introductory mission. |
| 24 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: Subverted. His large size arguably robs him of creep factor instead of enhancing it. |
| 25 | * BigDamnHeroes: Appears to scare three pectinodon off when they'd cornered Jack and Duke in ''Hell's Labyrinth''. |
| 26 | * CreepyCentipedes: See BigCreepyCrawlies above. Also, he's a milipede, not a centipede. |
| 27 | * GentleGiant: Despite being rather huge and intimidating (and being introduced in a rather intimidating manner), he's a rather placid herbivore. |
| 28 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has shown signs of forming a bond with Nikolai. |
| 29 | * MoralityPet: Arguably seeming to be set up as this for Nikolai. |
| 30 | * OppositesThemeNaming: Is named after the Latin word for 'luck', whereas the female arthropleura (and likely his future mate) is named Melancholia (which is arguably one of the furthest feelings from lucky one can feel). |
| 31 | [[/folder]] |
| 32 | |
| 33 | !!Chelicerata |
| 34 | [[folder:Selqet]] |
| 35 | A female pulmonoscorpius that is first captured in ''Alien Empire'' after being seen crawling on a sleeping Drew's back. |
| 36 | ---- |
| 37 | * AscendedExtra: Appears far more often in this story (and even bonds with one of the park staff members) compared to her comparative Prehistoric Earth counterpart Murasame. |
| 38 | * BewareMyStingerTail: She is a scorpion after all. |
| 39 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: While not ''Film/TheBlackScorpion'' level big, she is amongst one of the noticeably largest prehistoric species of scorpion, and her introductory scene is played for suspense. |
| 40 | * CanonForeigner: Her species was rescued in Prehistoric Earth, but the closest thing she had to a counterpart was a male named Murasame who never appeared in the story again after his debut episode. |
| 41 | * InterspeciesFriendship: With Bethany the veterinarian. |
| 42 | * LittleMissBadass: Downplayed in that she doesn't necessarily get the chance to do any serious damage to anyone, the seemingly quite angry response she gives after getting trapped in a bug cage indicates that she can at least be a bit of a spitfire. |
| 43 | * PowerPincers: Comes with being a scorpion. |
| 44 | * RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Not evil, but certainly played for suspense in her introductory scene, and she has a black exoskeleton with red stripes on her claws and a red tipped stinger on her tail. |
| 45 | * ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: Is named after the Egyptian scorpion goddess. |
| 46 | * ScaryScorpions: While not necessarily portrayed as any more dangerous than any real life modern scorpion, her introduction scene is noticeably played for suspense. |
| 47 | [[/folder]] |
| 48 | |
| 49 | [[folder:Neith]] |
| 50 | A representative of 'megalorachne', a newly discovered prehistoric species of spider. Also the first of her kind to be encountered by the rescue team (and by humanity in general) and subsequently rescued for the park. |
| 51 | ---- |
| 52 | * AdaptationalNameChange: Was named Pumpkin in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 53 | * AscendedExtra: Her Prehistoric Earth counterpart Pumpkin only appeared in her debut chapter in that story without ever appearing again. Here, she makes several other minor background appearances in both a main story chapter and a chapter in the spinoff ''Extras'' after her debut, and even starts forming a bond with one of the vets. |
| 54 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: Is certainly unnerving ([[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes at least to Leon]]), and is about the size of Leon's head. |
| 55 | * CrashIntoHello: Played with. While the rescue team (and the readers) don't get a proper full view of her or similar proper introduction until after she's already landed on the ground, she only lands there after getting shaken off from her initially landing on Leon's head. |
| 56 | * DeathFromAbove: Subjects a luckless hylonomus to this fate after lunging out of her burrow when it causes the webbing surrounding the entrance to vibrate while its running past said burrow. |
| 57 | * GiantSpider: As described in BigCreepyCrawlies above, she is at least the size of Leon's head. |
| 58 | * InterspeciesFriendship: With Bethany the veterinarian. |
| 59 | * RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Not evil, per se, but she is described in seemingly unnerving fashion, and has a black body with scarlet red pincers. |
| 60 | * ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: Is named after the Egyptian goddess of the hunt. |
| 61 | * SpidersAreScary: [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Particularly to Leon]]. |
| 62 | [[/folder]] |
| 63 | |
| 64 | [[folder:Hedetet]] |
| 65 | An adult mother pterygotus rescued alongside her offspring in ''The First Steps''. |
| 66 | ---- |
| 67 | * AdaptationalLateAppearance: In ''Prehistoric Earth'', she was rescued fairly early on in 'phase 1'. Here, she doesn't appear until the 3rd episode of 'season 2'. |
| 68 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: She is an alligator-sized eurypterid. |
| 69 | * GentleGiant: Proves very docile and easy to work with at the park despite acting understandably hostile towards the rescue team in her first appearance when she [[MamaBear caught them worryingly close to her offspring]]. |
| 70 | * GoodParents: Proves at the very least very good at keeping watch over her offspring judging by how quickly she comes to their defense after catching the rescue team in uncomfortably close proximity to them. |
| 71 | * MamaBear: Is very quick to defend her offspring once she catches the rescue team in rather worryingly close proximity to them in the Silurian Period. |
| 72 | * ScaryScorpions: Played with in that she is not a true scorpion and only acts reasonably 'scary' when [[MamaBear defending her offspring]] while being otherwise relatively friendly and docile the rest of the time. |
| 73 | [[/folder]] |
| 74 | |
| 75 | |
| 76 | !Amphibia |
| 77 | |
| 78 | [[folder:Andrias]] |
| 79 | A large male proterogyrinus amongst an entire float rescued in ''Alien Empire''. |
| 80 | ---- |
| 81 | * AlwaysABiggerFish: Is much larger, stronger, and more powerful than the crassigyrinus; a fact that is [[SummonBiggerFish immediately exploited]] when Leon ends up needing some additional assistance rescuing Yolanda from them. |
| 82 | * AmphibianAssault: With his large size and crocodile-like behaviors, he is not a creature you want to get on the bad side of. Just ask the crassigyrinus (themselves guilty of this trope). |
| 83 | * AmphibianAtLarge: As an adult proterogyrinus, he is at least 2-2.5 meters long (longer than a Chinese giant salamander). |
| 84 | * BigDamnHeroes: Is released from the proterogyrinus paddock and into the crassigyrinus pool by Adrian in time for him to scare the crassigyrinus long enough for Leon to swim over to the escape rope with the distressed Yolanda in his clutches and bring her and himself to safety. |
| 85 | * CanonForeigner: While his species was rescued in Prehistoric Earth, he himself has no evidence of being personally present amongst the group of his kind that were rescued in the former fanfic. |
| 86 | * LargeAndInCharge: Of an intimidatingly large size and serves as an enforcer for his float's alpha female Yunnan. |
| 87 | * NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Whilst he's not a true crocodile (or even a reptile), he has this vibe. |
| 88 | * ShoutOut: Named after the King of Newtopia (and all of Amphibia for that matter) from ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}''. |
| 89 | * SummonBiggerFish: On the receiving end of this by virtue of being released into the crassigyrinus pool in time to temporarily scare them away right as they're on the verge of potentially overwhelming Leon in his efforts at keeping them from killing and eating Yolanda. |
| 90 | [[/folder]] |
| 91 | |
| 92 | [[folder:Kermit]] |
| 93 | One of the adult male beelzebufo rescued from Maevarano for the park. |
| 94 | ---- |
| 95 | * AmphibianAtLarge: Is 16 inches long and weighs as least 10 pounds, and is of a species of frog big enough to have fed upon baby dinosaurs. |
| 96 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 97 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Forms a bond with his primary caretaker Hugo. |
| 98 | * ShoutOut: Is named after the famed Kermit the frog from ''Franchise/TheMuppets''. |
| 99 | [[/folder]] |
| 100 | |
| 101 | |
| 102 | !!Urodela |
| 103 | [[folder:Newter]] |
| 104 | One of the adult scapherpeton rescued from Hell Creek for the park. |
| 105 | ---- |
| 106 | * AmphibianAssault: He beats up Spiny the dimetrodon when he accidentally lands on him over the course of one of his ill-fated attempts at hunting Larry. |
| 107 | * AmphibianAtLarge: He is at least three feet long, which makes him noticeably longer and bigger than most modern day amphibians. |
| 108 | * BigEater: Is noted by Aaron to love to eat sizable portions of the food that he and his kind receive during their feeding times at the park. |
| 109 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 110 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has formed a bond with his primary keeper Aaron. |
| 111 | * PoisonousPerson: Subtly implied in that, while there is no guaranteed explicit information of him being poisonous like some modern species of frog and salamander, his keepers nonetheless wear protective gloves on their hands when handling him and his species, just in case. |
| 112 | * UseYourHead: The first thing he does to beat up Spiny after the young dimetrodon lands on him and incurs his wrath is to ram his head against his chest. |
| 113 | [[/folder]] |
| 114 | |
| 115 | !Diapsida |
| 116 | |
| 117 | [[folder:Larry]] |
| 118 | One of the adult male petrolacosaurus, and an especially strongly desired would-be meal for Spiny the dimetrodon. |
| 119 | ---- |
| 120 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Aside from a brief chase scene, Spiny seemed to ignore his counterpart Lubbock more than anything else during their interactions in Prehistoric Earth. Here, Spiny is hell-bent on eating Larry. |
| 121 | * AdaptationalNameChange: He was called Lubbock in ''Fanfic/PrehistoricEarth''. |
| 122 | * AscendedExtra: His ''Prehistoric Earth'' counterpart only appeared over the course of a single mission. Here, he gets both an entire Prehistoric Park: Extras chapter all to himself (albeit, shared with Spiny), as well as a significant amount of focus in another chapter that came prior. |
| 123 | * {{Expy}}: Of both [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Tweety]] and [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner the Road Runner]], in that he's a small animal who is [[SuperPersistentPredator doggedly pursued]] by a larger predator determined on eating him (but is always doomed to failure), who ends up undergoing[[HumiliationConga one humiliation after another]] in the process. |
| 124 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has a very small bond with Bethany the veterinarian. |
| 125 | * LovableLizard: Whilst being a primitive diapsid and not a true lizard, he fits the profile. |
| 126 | * RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Bethany and a large number of the other staff certainly think so. |
| 127 | [[/folder]] |
| 128 | |
| 129 | !!Dinosauria |
| 130 | |
| 131 | !!!Theropoda |
| 132 | [[folder:Broken Jaw]] |
| 133 | A male allosaurus europaeus who was first rescued alongside his mate and two hatchlings during ''All Creatures Great and Small''. Came to the park with a previously broken jaw that hadn't set properly after healing, which was subsequently given proper treatment and 'healing' by the park vets. |
| 134 | ---- |
| 135 | * AppetiteEqualsHealth: Linda and Yolanda take the fact that he's eating healthily without any trouble several weeks after his jaw correction surgery as a sign that he's still recovering well. |
| 136 | * CanonForeigner: Didn't appear in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 137 | * GoodParents: He and his mate are implied to be this to their son and daughter. |
| 138 | * HandicappedBadass: His jaw was broken and improperly healed when he was first brought back to the park, and he still has a slight underbite after getting his jaw successfully corrected in surgery, and he's still very much a force to be reckoned with. |
| 139 | * HappilyMarried: To his mate. |
| 140 | * MeaningfulName: See above description for why he's named ''Broken Jaw''. |
| 141 | * ShoutOut: Named after another allosaurus with a similar jaw injury in ''Series/DinosaurRevolution''. |
| 142 | [[/folder]] |
| 143 | |
| 144 | [[folder:Rocco]] |
| 145 | One of two teratornis rescued over the course of ''Oozing From the Pit''. Is first introduced alongside his mate Laverne attempting to straight up kill an already seriously wounded Eshe the American cheetah so as to not have to wait until she dies naturally before eating her and proves rather difficult to work with even after he's been sent to the present and placed amongst the park's animal repertoire. |
| 146 | ---- |
| 147 | * AnimalsNotToScale: He and Laverne are portrayed as far larger than their species was in real life (only slightly bigger than an Andean condor) - closer to the size of ''Aiolornis''. The author has admitted that this was for RuleOfCool. |
| 148 | * BrutalBirdOfPrey: Whilst not evil per se, he is very aggressive and pugnacious. |
| 149 | * CanonForeigner: Neither he, nor his mate Laverne (or even their species for that matter), ever appeared in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 150 | * CirclingVultures: He and Laverne are first introduced descending down from the sky after having flown in circles above the severely wounded Eshe. |
| 151 | * EscapedAnimalRampage: Downplayed in that he doesn't really cause all that much damage when he temporarily escapes his enclosure in ''Dogfight''. Nonetheless, he does prove rather difficult to detain over the course of the park's subsequent efforts at recapturing him. |
| 152 | * FeatheredFiend: He and Laverne are very aggressive and unpleasant to work with even before they get rescued and sent to the park from out of their home time period. |
| 153 | * HappilyMarried: For all his faults, he seems to at least have a healthy relationship with his mate Laverne. |
| 154 | * VileVulture: Whilst not evil, he's rather aggressive and pugnacious and plays an antagonistic role in ''Dogfight!'' and the Shutdown. |
| 155 | * YellowEyesOfSneakiness: Comes with being a vulture, and rather appropriate when considering his [[BrutalBirdOfPrey aggressive]] [[VileVulture nature]]. |
| 156 | [[/folder]] |
| 157 | |
| 158 | [[folder:Duke]] |
| 159 | Alpha male of a dromaeosaurus pack rescued in ''Return of the King''. First met by Jack alongside Kaa the dinilysia while hiding in a log from a hungry family of t-rex. |
| 160 | ---- |
| 161 | * ActionDad: It is implied that four of the youngsters in his pack are his own hatchlings, and he is very much a capable leader of his pack, especially when it comes to action. |
| 162 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. And his species wasn't even rescued in the former fanfic either. |
| 163 | * CompositeCharacter: He has elements of Red (dromaeosaur who forms a close bond with Jack) and the allosaur squad (dinosaur trained by major character for security purposes). |
| 164 | * EnemyMine: He, Kaa, and Jack show absolutely no signs of natural enmity to show between them while they're mutually hiding in a log in fear of a hungry family of t-rex. |
| 165 | * FeatheredFiend: To his prey. |
| 166 | * HappilyMarried: Can be reasonably implied to be the case with his mate Cassie. |
| 167 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has formed a pretty strong bond with Jack. |
| 168 | * ItCanThink: Is at least smart enough to both seemingly regret leaving Jack and Kaa in the log when he takes the opportunity to escape and seemingly recognize Jack when they encounter each other again while Duke is alongside his pack. |
| 169 | * MomentKiller: Lets out a low throaty squawk of amusement while watching a moment of ShipTease unfold between Colette and Jack during ''Feather and Scale'', which embarrasses the two enough to end their meeting and get back to work. And he does it again in ''Alien Empire''. |
| 170 | * RaptorAttack: Mostly averted - he and his pack accurately depicted as feathered and bird-like. However, they are slightly larger than the real animals. |
| 171 | [[/folder]] |
| 172 | |
| 173 | [[folder:Rexy]] |
| 174 | An adult female t-rex amongst an entire family rescued in ''Return of the King''. |
| 175 | ---- |
| 176 | * ActionMom: She is a mother of two, and still quite capable of kicking ass and taking names. |
| 177 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 178 | * FeatheredFiend: To her prey. |
| 179 | * GoodParents: Alongside her mate Tyrannor, she is very much a good mother to her son Terrence and daughter Matilda. |
| 180 | * HappilyMarried: To Tyrannor. |
| 181 | * KnightOfCerebus: Serves as this alongside the rest of her family when actively on the hunt in the Cretaceous Period. |
| 182 | * LightningBruiser: As massive as she is, she can move very fast when she needs to. |
| 183 | * MightyRoar: Technically [[ShownTheirWork more of a mighty bellow]], but the spirit of this trope is still present. |
| 184 | * ShoutOut: Is named after the iconic adult female t-rex from ''Film/JurassicPark'' (and, if you split hairs, after the skeletal male t-rex from ''Film/NightAtTheMuseum''). |
| 185 | * SparedByTheAdaptation: Her counterpart in the original Prehistoric Park series was killed by a rival adult male seconds before the infamous KT event meteor struck the earth. Here she is successfully rescued alongside her mate and offspring. |
| 186 | * TerrifyingTyrannosaur: Proves TheDreaded alongside her family to the combined herd of local herbivorous dinosaurs in their mutual home time period in Hell Creek, and acts suitably ferocious over the course of hunting and later starts showing off her gentler side while she and her family are quietly feasting together alone (presence of the rescue team notwithstanding) on a freshly killed ornithomimus before eventually settling into a balanced mixture of both common portrayals of her species over the course of her time living at the park. |
| 187 | [[/folder]] |
| 188 | |
| 189 | [[folder:Tyrannor]] |
| 190 | An adult male t-rex amongst an entire family rescued in ''Return of the King'', and Rexy's mate. |
| 191 | ---- |
| 192 | * ActionDad: Father of two, and more than capable of throwing his weight around. |
| 193 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 194 | * FeatheredFiend: To his prey. |
| 195 | * GoodParents: Alongside his mate Rexy, he is a very caring father to Terrence and Matilda. |
| 196 | * HappilyMarried: To Rexy. |
| 197 | * KnightOfCerebus: Serves as this alongside the rest of his family while actively on the hunt in the Cretaceous Period. |
| 198 | * LightningBruiser: Much like Rexy, he can move deceptively fast for a creature of his size and bulk. |
| 199 | * MightyRoar: Just like with Rexy, the spirit of this trope is present in the bellow he makes. |
| 200 | * ShoutOut: Is named after the main antagonist from ''WesternAnimation/DinkTheLittleDinosaur''. |
| 201 | * TerrifyingTyrannosaur: Proves TheDreaded alongside his family to the combined herd of local herbivorous dinosaurs in their mutual home time period in Hell Creek, and acts suitably ferocious over the course of hunting and later starts showing off his gentler side while he and his family are quietly feasting together alone (presence of the rescue team notwithstanding) on a freshly killed ornithomimus before eventually settling into a balanced mixture of both common portrayals of his species over the course of his time living at the park. |
| 202 | [[/folder]] |
| 203 | |
| 204 | [[folder:Terrence]] |
| 205 | A juvenile male t-rex rescued in ''Return of the King'', and Rexy and Tyrannor's son. |
| 206 | ---- |
| 207 | * AscendedExtra: Plays a major role in this story after having previously been adapted out of Prehistoric Earth. |
| 208 | * FeatheredFiend: To his prey. |
| 209 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has started to bond with Drew and an adolescent male majungsaurus his age. |
| 210 | * KnightOfCerebus: Serves as this alongside the rest of his family when actively hunting in the Cretaceous Period. |
| 211 | * MythologyGag: Named after one of the young t-rex rescued in the original ''Series/PrehistoricPark'' series. |
| 212 | * TerrifyingTyrannosaur: Proves TheDreaded alongside his family to the combined herd of local herbivorous dinosaurs in their mutual home time period in Hell Creek, and acts suitably ferocious over the course of hunting and later starts showing off his gentler side while he and his family are quietly feasting together alone (presence of the rescue team notwithstanding) on a freshly killed ornithomimus before eventually starting to showcase far more aspects of the noble portrayal of his species over the course of his time living at the park in contrast to his more fearsome sister [[BigSisterBully Matilda]]. |
| 213 | [[/folder]] |
| 214 | |
| 215 | [[folder:Matilda]] |
| 216 | A juvenile female t-rex rescued in ''Return of the King'', and Terrence's sister. |
| 217 | ---- |
| 218 | * AscendedExtra: Plays a major role in this story after having previously been adapted out of Prehistoric Earth. |
| 219 | * BigSisterBully: Becomes this to Terrence over the course of her puberty. |
| 220 | * FeatheredFiend: To her prey. |
| 221 | * GreenAndMean: Has sparse dark green feathers on her body and is one of the more antagonistic members of her family, [[BigSisterBully particularly to her brother Terrence]]. |
| 222 | * TheHeavy: Out of all the escaped carnivores in ''Hell's Labyrinth'', she ends up arguably causing the most trouble over the course of the park's efforts at recapturing her. |
| 223 | * KnightOfCerebus: Serves as this alongside the rest of her family when actively hunting in the Cretaceous Period [[spoiler: and also while under the influence of the HatePlague and outside of her paddock in ''Hell's Labyrinth'']]. |
| 224 | * MightyRoar: Lets out a sizable number of these while infected with the HatePlague over the course of ''Hell's Labyrinth''. |
| 225 | * MythologyGag: Named after one of the young t-rex rescued in the original ''Series/PrehistoricPark'' series. |
| 226 | * RoarBeforeBeating: Noticeably hisses at the sight of Jack in the same clearing as her and her family before she goes charging after him. And she also goes so far as to outright ''roar'' immediately prior to her hunting attempts and battles she engages in over the course of ''Hell's Labyrinth''. |
| 227 | * TerrifyingTyrannosaur: Proves TheDreaded alongside her family to the combined herd of local herbivorous dinosaurs in their mutual home time period in Hell Creek, and acts suitably ferocious over the course of hunting and later starts showing off her gentler side while she and her family are quietly feasting together alone (presence of the rescue team notwithstanding) on a freshly killed ornithomimus before eventually starting to showcase far more aspects of the fearsome portrayal of her species over the course of her time living at the park in contrast to her more noble and majestic brother Terrence. |

| 229 | |
| 230 | [[folder:Hannibal]] |
| 231 | An adult male argentavis that gets rescued alongside his mate in ''Of Scales and Feathers''. |
| 232 | ---- |
| 233 | * BrutalBirdOfPrey: Can be very vicious when hunting his prey, and does not take kindly (to say the least) when Drew starts working to goad him and Imilce into going after him and through the portal. |
| 234 | * CanonForeigner: Prehistoric Earth didn't even feature his ''species'', let alone he himself. |
| 235 | * DeathFromAbove: The unfortunate fate he and Imilce deal to a luckless diadiaphorus. |
| 236 | * GiantFlyer: Is roughly six feet tall, and can fly. |
| 237 | * HappilyMarried: To his mate Imilce. |
| 238 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has begun to form a bond with Colette. |
| 239 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Is named after the famed Carthaginian general. He even has a mate named after his namesake's wife! |
| 240 | * NobleBirdOfPrey: Played straight, in a rare vulture example of this - whilst he's fierce and menacing, he's portrayed sympathetically. |
| 241 | * UncattyResemblance: Heavily implied to be fairly similar to Colette and Nero in regards to personality. |
| 242 | * VileVulture: Zig-zagged - whilst he's fierce and menacing, he's ultimately more of a NobleBirdOfPrey. |
| 243 | [[/folder]] |
| 244 | |
| 245 | [[folder:Mahazatra]] |
| 246 | A juvenile male majungasaurus that gets rescued and sent to the park not too long after a particularly unlucky run-in with two adults of his kind. |
| 247 | ---- |
| 248 | * BullyingADragon: Hungry or not, he probably should have known better than to try to snack on two baby majungasaurus when their mother was right there in the same area as them. |
| 249 | * CanonForeigner: Neither his species, nor he himself, ever appeared in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 250 | * CurbStompBattle: Twice in a row - firstly, he's mauled near to death by an enraged mother majungasaurus for attempting to hunt her babies... and then Goliath shows up and tries to eat ''him''. |
| 251 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Forms a bond with Cynthia - in addition, he seems to have befriended Terence the tyrannosaurus. |
| 252 | * MeaningfulName: His name [[BilingualBonus is the Malagasy word for 'oddball']], and, being an abelisaurid, he looks pretty unusual. |
| 253 | [[/folder]] |
| 254 | |
| 255 | [[folder: Smith and Wesson]] |
| 256 | A pair of adult male saurornitholestes brothers that get rescued alongside the other members of their pack in ''The D-Bags''. Later becomes security guard Calum Fox's personal security raptor team. |
| 257 | ---- |
| 258 | * CanonForeigner: Neither of them (or their species for that matter) appeared in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 259 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Form a close bond with Calum. |
| 260 | * RaptorAttack: Mostly averted - whilst they (as is par for the course or the smaller dromaeosaurs in this fic) are slightly oversized), they are accurately depicted as feathered and bird-like. |
| 261 | * RedOniBlueOni: Smith is the calm and collected blue to his rash and impulsive brother Wesson's red. |
| 262 | * ThoseTwoGuys: Neither Smith, nor Wesson, have ever been present outside each other's company. |
| 263 | * UndyingLoyalty: To Calum when on duty with him and to their alpha male Stetson when they're in the saurornitholestes paddock alongside him and the rest of the pack. |
| 264 | [[/folder]] |
| 265 | |
| 266 | [[folder:Elvis]] |
| 267 | A male cryolophosaurus and part of a mated pair that was rescued in ''Spirits of the Ice Forest''. |
| 268 | ---- |
| 269 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 270 | * HappilyMarried: To his mate Priscilla. |
| 271 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: [[Music/ElvisPresley Take a wild guess]]. |
| 272 | [[/folder]] |
| 273 | |
| 274 | [[folder:Nezbit]] |
| 275 | The alpha male of a small pack of velociraptor rescued for the park. |

| 277 | * CanonForeigner: While a pack of his species was rescued in ''Prehistoric Earth'', he himself was not confirmed amongst their number in the former fanfic. |
| 278 | * CombatPragmatist: Double-teams Duke with Zenobia in the climax of the Breakout... and comes scarily close to killing him. |
| 279 | * ContrastingSequelAntagonist: To Matilda. Both are motivated by hunger and are the main [[TheHeavy heavies]] of a mass breakout story. However, Matilda is a large, powerful tyrannosaur who was mostly a solo threat and largely used brute force, whilst Nezbit is a small, comparatively lightly-built dromaeosaur who leads a small pack and uses his speed and cunning. |
| 280 | * FeatheredFiend: To his prey and anything else that dares to get on his bad side. |
| 281 | * TheHeavy: Along with the rest of his pack, he acts as this in the Breakout. |
| 282 | * HappilyMarried: While he does have a somewhat tense working relationship with his four much younger 'underlings', he seems to have a fairly solid relationship with his mate Zenobia. |
| 283 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm: As indicated by the end results of the times he's seen engaging in attempts at hunting prior to the moment he and his pack get rescued, he's smart enough to know when to cut his losses. |
| 284 | * RaptorAttack: Mostly averted - whilst he and his pack (as is par for the course or the smaller dromaeosaurs in this fic) are slightly oversized), they are accurately depicted as feathered and bird-like. |

| 287 | [[folder:Uilleam]] |
| 288 | A male (and seeming leader) amongst the dodo flock rescued for the park. Manages to prove a quite unexpected source of equal parts levity and irritation amongst the park staff. |
| 289 | ---- |
| 290 | * CanonForeigner: Neither his species, nor he himself, were remotely present in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 291 | * DoofyDodo: Is a FearlessFool who'll happily go walking around just about anywhere without a care in the world while also being more than willing to attempt to challenge animals visibly bigger than himself to a fight. |
| 292 | * FearlessFool: Is so utterly lacking in any concept of fear that he'll not only gladly wander about anywhere with zero regard for his own safety, but also attempt to challenge animals visibly bigger than himself to a fight. |
| 293 | * HappilyMarried: To his mate Dodi. |
| 294 | * ShoutOut: Is named after the ''Film/AliceInWonderland2010'' incarnation of the dodo character from ''Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland''. |

| 300 | * CanonForeigner: Neither he, nor his mate Ankhesenamun, or even his species for that matter, were present in any capacity in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 301 | * DinosaursAreDragons: Is described more than once in his introductory chapter in ways that make him seemingly evoke the appearance of a dragon. |
| 302 | * GreenAndMean: Is a yellowish green in color and serves an incidentally antagonistic role over the course of his introductory chapter. |
| 303 | * HappilyMarried: To his mate, who just so happens to be named after his namesake's RealLife wife. |
| 304 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: [[UsefulNotes/{{Tutankhamun}} Take a wild guess]]. |
| 305 | * SavageSpinosaurs: Downplayed in that he's largely portrayed as simply an animal trying to survive. Nevertheless, he's also portrayed as a dangerous creature that one would not want to mess with without good reason, and he and his mate Ankhesenamun prove opportunistic enough in their hunger during their introductory chapter to not only duel against a pair of carcharodontosaurus for the sake of eating an iguanodont carcass, but also try to eat ''Drew'' when he both interrupts their efforts at getting said carcass and ends up luckless enough to be within their reach after they choose to give up the chase he tries to have them and the carcharodontosaurus go on after said carcass. |

| 310 | A lone male juvenile apatosaurus. First found trapped in quicksand, heavily wounded on his back from an attack by a Saurophaganax, and at risk of getting hunted and eaten by a pack of Ceratosaurus as well as a combined float of Amphicotylus and Diplosaurus. He is subsequently rescued and sent to the park, where he receives proper medical care and later shows signs of bonding with Linda. |
| 311 | ---- |
| 312 | * BadassInDistress: With his species' size and strength, he could easily fight off threats if he puts his mind to it/needs to. However, he is first introduced in need of rescue from carnivores as a result of him being both already wounded as well as trapped in quicksand. |
| 313 | * CanonForeigner: Was not explicitly present amongst the representatives of his species that were rescued in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 314 | * CowardlyLion: Despite weighing more than a bull African elephant, he isn't really confrontational and sometimes has to rely on Shorty to stand up for him. However, in ''Hell's Labyrinth'', he took on a saurophaganax to protect Linda, Jack and Collete from it... and ''won''. |
| 315 | * {{Foil}}: To Shorty, the other main Morrison sauropod. |
| 316 | ** Physically, Arlo is a long, lightly built diplodocid, who is a solid grey, whilst Shorty is a tall, bulky brachiosaur with red skin with black patches. |
| 317 | ** In regards to their personalities, Arlo is a CowardlyLion, whilst Shorty is a BoisterousBruiser. |
| 318 | * GentleGiantSauropod |
| 319 | * InterspeciesFriendship: With Shorty the Brachiosaurus. |
| 320 | * LikeASonToMe: From the way she acts when it comes to him, Linda is heavily implied to view him as this; something that does not escape Collete or Jack's attention (and the former is [[DisapprovingLook heavily implied to not at all approve of]]). |
| 321 | * QuicksandSucks: Is introduced trapped in quicksand. |
| 322 | * SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: The Sensitive Guy to Shorty's Manly Man. |

| 329 | * AuthorityInNameOnly: A variation. She may be the officially accepted leader of the herd, but most of the heavy lifting is left to the comparatively younger adult male Bron. |
| 330 | * CanonForeigner: Much like Arlo, there is no evidence that she was present amongst her species representatives rescued in ''Prehistoric Earth''. |
| 331 | * GentleGiantSauropod: When she's not rejecting would-be newcomers to the herd that is. |
| 332 | * LargeAndInCharge: Is the leader of the apatosaurus herd, and is of appropriate size for her age and species. |
| 333 | * ShoutOut: Is named after the titular sauropod from ''WesternAnimation/GertieTheDinosaur''. |

| 338 | ---- |
| 339 | * ActionDad: According to WordOfGod, he has a son named Littlefoot, just like his namesake. |
| 340 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth prior to his appearance in this story. |
| 341 | * GentleGiantSauropod: Around his son Littlefoot and the rest of their herd; but not towards any hopeful newcomers to the herd that Gertie doesn't accept. |
| 342 | * TheLancer: To Gertie. |
| 343 | * LargeAndInCharge: He's seventy feet long and eighteen tons and acts as the apatosaurus herd's main enforcer. |
| 344 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: It is revealed in ''Two Sides of One Coin'' that, in the months that have passed since Arlo's initial rejection from receiving membership to the larger apatosaurus herd and subsequent befriending of Shorty, he and the other apatosaurus have come to eventually start allowing Arlo to eat and drink alongside them at the very least (complete with Bron himself only irritably snorting when Arlo comes to drink alongside them). |
| 345 | * ShoutOut: Is named after Littlefoot's father in ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTimeXTheGreatLongneckMigration'' ([[WordOfGod and he even has a son amongst the herd named after his namesake's own son]]). |

| 351 | * ActionMom: Still has enough energy in her to personally discipline would-be usurpers in her herd despite her old age, and has a fully grown son named Adin. |
| 352 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Much like [[Literature/WatershipDown the Threarah]], she still has enough energy in her despite her old age to personally discipline any whippersnappers and would-be usurpers in her herd, usually by [[CorporalPunishment smacking them with her tail]], almost as if to say, 'I may be old; but I'm not ''that'' old'. |
| 353 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 354 | * CorporalPunishment: Her default tactic for dealing with whippersnappers and would-be usurpers in her herd is to [[TailSlap smack them with her tail]]. |
| 355 | * GentleGiantSauropod |
| 356 | * LargeAndInCharge: Of appropriate size for her age and species, and is the leader of her herd. |
| 357 | * NeverMessWithGranny: As old as she is, she's still perfectly capable of personally disciplining any whippersnappers, upstarts, and would-be usurpers in her herd dumb enough to try to challenge or openly defy her. |
| 358 | * ShoutOut: Named after a similarly elderly brachiosaurus from {{WesternAnimation/Dinosaur}}, and utilizes a punishment technique for whippersnappers and would-be usurpers in her herd similar to the one used by [[Literature/WatershipDown the Threarah]] (complete with the seeming justification of her doing this to say 'I may be old; but I'm not ''that'' old'). |
| 359 | * TailSlap: As mentioned above, she usually prefers to discipline would-be usurpers and whippersnappers in her herd by smacking them with her tail. |

| 370 | ** In regards to their personalities, Arlo is a CowardlyLion, whilst Shorty is a BoisterousBruiser. |
| 371 | * GentleGiantSauropod: A bit of a prankster, but is nonetheless fairly amicable. |
| 372 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Forms one with Arlo the apatosaurus. |
| 373 | * IronicName: Much like his namesake, he's destined to be quite large once he's fully grown (and he's already about as tall as a fully-grown giraffe despite still being a juvenile). |
| 374 | * SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: The manly man to Arlo's sensitive guy. |

| 383 | ---- |
| 384 | * BewareMyStingerTail: As expected of a stegosaurus, his tail comes with the famed thagomizer spikes. |
| 385 | * BigEater: A large amount of plants he and his kind like to eat are successfully used as bait to get him and the other stegosaurus through the portal, and he is shown once again taking part in a meal during his next appearance in ''All Creatures Great and Small''. |
| 386 | * CanonForeigner: While his species was rescued in ''Prehistoric Earth'', there is no explicit evidence that he himself was amongst the group rescued in the former fanfic. |
| 387 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has shown signs of potentially someday forming a bond with Drew. |
| 388 | * LargeAndInCharge: Appears to be the accepted leader of the small group of adult male bachelor stegosaurus, and is naturally the usual size for the species. |
| 389 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He is well aware of the authority of the larger stegosaurus herd's matriarch, and is perfectly happy to respect her group's boundaries as long as she does the same for his own. |
| 390 | * StealthyColossus: Manages in ''Glorious at the Top'' to avoid detection by Drew until he's close enough to him to allow the enclosure's wall to be the only thing preventing him from coming into position literally right next to him. |
| 391 | * TailSlap: This, combined with BewareMyStingerTail, is his most common means of defense. |
| 392 | * ToughArmoredDinosaur: He is a stegosaurus after all. |

| 396 | One of two males amongst the quartet of ankylosaurus rescued for the park. |
| 397 | ---- |
| 398 | * BewareMyStingerTail: As is to be expected from his being an ankylosaurus, he has a thick and heavy bludgeon-like growth at the tip of his tail that he's not afraid to beat his enemies with. |
| 399 | * BruiserWithASoftCenter: Is very tough, sturdy, and strong. And he's not one to mess around with lightly, especially if he's in a bad mood. But at the same time, he has a hidden soft side that he will occasionally allow to show if circumstances favor as much. |
| 400 | * CanonForeigner: Did not appear in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 401 | * EpicFlail: What his bludgeon tipped tail essentially functions as. |
| 402 | * LargeAndInCharge: While his species behaves in rather solitary fashion and only groups together during certain specific circumstances, he seems to at least have authority over the younger male Bumpy judging by how Bumpy very quickly obeys him. |
| 403 | * TailSlap: His natural preferred method of attack, and a quite painful one to thanks to his bludgeon tipped tail. |
| 404 | * ToughArmoredDinosaur: He is an ankylosaurus and quite tough and intimidating. |

| 414 | * LargeAndInCharge: Is quite a bit larger than the other adults in her herd, and serves as said herd's matriarch. |
| 415 | * LoudOfWar: Can let out an incredibly loud honking bellow that causes intense discomfort to carnivores who hear it at full volume. |
| 416 | * MamaBear: As a trio of compsognathus learn the hard way, ''do not'' mess with her eggs. |
| 417 | * SocialOrnithopod: Is quite happy with hanging around other members of her herd. |

| 422 | One of the subordinate adult male members of the park's pachycephalosaurus herd. Has developed a close bond with his primary keeper Cass Cheng. |
| 423 | ---- |
| 424 | * AloofLeaderAffableSubordinate: Compared to the stern and no-nonsense Sandor, Einstein is very playful, friendly, and easy to 'hang out' with. |
| 425 | * BruiserWithASoftCenter: Is about the size of a grown human man, and has a thick domed head with a ring of spikes around it as well as a small horn on the tip of his snout, but is shown to be very playful and friendly around his primary keeper Cass Cheng. |
| 426 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 427 | * HeadbuttingPachy: Largely averted, as he is rarely ever seen fighting ''period'', let alone against others of his kind. Played straight, however, during ''Hell's Labyrinth'' when he is fighting against the Morrison Formation allosaurus pack alongside the rest of his herd. |
| 428 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has formed a close bond with primary keeper Cass Cheng. |
| 429 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Named after the famous scientist who discovered the theory of relativity. |
| 430 | * ShipperOnDeck: Appears to be this towards Horace and Cass judging by the rather amused hooting grunts he makes when he sees them interacting near his recovery pen in ''The D-Bags''. |
| 431 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Ends up absolutely ''loving'' the taste of apples after he ends up eating a small bit of one dropped by Cass while she was eating it for lunch one day. It has since gotten to the point that he's now almost constantly trying to steal her apples every day since for the sake of getting seconds. |
| 432 | * {{Troll}}: Seems to know how much Cass gets annoyed by his efforts at stealing her apples and actively enjoy messing with her in this regard if the fact that he lets her chase him in attempts to get the apples he ''does'' successfully steal back is any indication. Also takes enjoyment in messing around with the other adult members of his herd and trying to goad them into chasing after him. |

| 463 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: His counterpart in ''Fanfic/PrehistoricEarth'' formed a close bond with Linda and largely wasn't seen to interact all that much (if at all) with Adrian. Here? Adrian is the one he shows signs of forming a close bond with while Linda has only appeared to interact with him about as much as was necessary over the course of his medical care following his rescue. |
| 464 | * AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Unlike his counterpart in ''Fanfic/PrehistoricEarth'', he is a quetzalcoatlus instead of an ornithocheirus. |

| 551 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: He's named after WWII German general Erwin Rommel. |
| 552 | * NeverSmileAtACrocodile: While not truly a crocodilian, [[FantasticFaunaCounterpart he behaves very similarly to an alligator]]. |
| 553 | * PoisonousPerson: His bite is venomous, with four different hemotoxic enzymes, designed to prevent blood from clotting, leading to the prey to bleed to death. |
| 554 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Has unnerving blood red eyes. |
| 555 | * RoarBeforeBeating: Almost always bellows, snarls, or hisses immediately before attacking. |
| 556 | * UncattyResemblance: He's just as stocky, stubborn and short-tempered as Kyle is. |

| 559 | [[folder:Spiny]] |
| 560 | A juvenile male ''Dimetrodon''. |
| 561 | ---- |
| 562 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: In ''Prehistoric Earth'', he was rescued in the penultimate episode of the first 'season'. Here, is rescued at around the middle of the first 'season'. |
| 563 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Largely tolerated (if not outright ignored) Larry's counterpart in Prehistoric Earth. Here, he will stop at nothing to eat the little bugger. |
| 564 | * AdaptationalVillainy: Downplayed. Whilst he is technically more antagonistic than his Prehistoric Earth counterpart, spending most of his time attempting to eat Larry (whose Prehistoric Earth counterpart Lubbock he tolerated), his ButtMonkey demeanour makes him more endearing than anything else. |
| 565 | * AscendedExtra: Only appeared in one mission in Prehistoric Earth, aside from a brief BackForTheFinale cameo in the series epilogue. Here, he's a recurring character, having had two Prehistoric Park: Extras chapters to himself and minor appearances in several more. |
| 566 | * ButtMonkey: The world is downright cruel to this guy. |
| 567 | * TheChewToy: In both his solo stories, he's a major bad-luck magnet, with the world pretty much making it its mission to beat him up. |
| 568 | * EarlyBirdCameo: Before his proper introduction in "I Tawt I Taw A Dimetwodon", he appeared briefly in the Prehistoric Park: Extras story "Two Sides Of One Coin", being bullied away from the Dimetrodon lake by Rommel, [[EstablishingCharacterMoment setting the stage for his later appearances]]. |
| 569 | * {{Expy}}: Of both [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Sylvester]] and [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Wile E. Coyote]], in that he undergoes [[ButtMonkey unimaginable humiliation]] in a [[SuperPersistentPredator dogged pursuit]] of a small prey item. |
| 570 | * LovableLizard: Whilst not a true lizard (or even a diapsid), he displays many varanid-like behaviours - and his ButtMonkey portrayal makes him surprisingly endearing. |
| 571 | * SuperPersistentPredator: Parodied. He will not give up in his pursuit of Larry, no matter how much humiliation he undergoes. |

| 578 | [[folder:Smokey]] |
| 579 | A single solitary male arctodus. Was first encountered and rescued in ''Oozing From the Pit'' over the course of a territorial battle he fought against Diego the smilodon fatalis. |
| 580 | ---- |
| 581 | * BearsAreBadNews: Downplayed. Whilst he's not evil or even malicious, he's still fierce and menacing - and is introduced pummeling Diego near to death. And he becomes even more aggressive than normal while infected with the HatePlague. |
| 582 | * CanonForeigner: Never appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 583 | * EvilIsBigger: Downplayed - whilst he's not evil per se, his enmity with Diego makes him one of the more antagonistic park creatures... and he's 11 feet tall on his hind legs. |
| 584 | * {{Foil}}: To Dag. Both are the comparatively more antagonistic rivals to a Pleistocene La Brea predator (Diego for Smokey and Nero for Dag). But while Smokey is a big, strong, and tough bear that would be more than capable of killing Diego (and, indeed, very nearly did), Dag is a thin and comparatively weak coyote that would have no chance in a fair fight against Nero the dire wolf. |
| 585 | * TheHermit: He's not exactly the most social of bears, and seems to heavily prefer living alone in the arctodus enclosure instead of hanging around the larger sleuth of his kind. |
| 586 | * MightyRoar: He is a bear after all. |
| 587 | * NoSell: Easily shakes off the minor bite wounds to his shoulder that Diego inflicts upon him during their duel in ''Oozing from the Pit''. |
| 588 | * TheRival: To Diego the smilodon fatalis. |
| 589 | * ShoutOut: He is named after the famous forest fire prevention mascot. |

| 592 | [[folder:Diego]] |
| 593 | A male smilodon fatalis. Was first encountered and rescued in ''Oozing From the Pit'' after a vicious territory battle he fought against Smokey the arctodus. Now lives at the park alongside a female named Shira. |
| 594 | ---- |
| 595 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Was first rescued in ''Prehistoric Earth'' in the penultimate mission to occur before the two part 'series finale'. Here, he's rescued in the 5th episode of the 1st 'season'. |
| 596 | * AndroclesLion: Was narrowly prevented from getting killed by [[BearsAreBadNews Smokey the arctodus]] by a timely intervention from Leon, who subsequently spent a decent amount of time personally watching over him and taking care of him during both his recovery period and his subsequent time as a healthy resident of the park. Much later, during the Shutdown, Diego manages to save Leon from getting mauled by Smokey when the bear ambushees him |
| 597 | * AscendedExtra: Only appeared for a few brief scenes at the park after his rescue in ''Prehistoric Earth''. Here, he plays a prominent role in the story several episodes after his initial rescue and even forms a bond with Leon. |
| 598 | * BabiesEverAfter: Has three cubs with Shira. |
| 599 | * BadassInDistress: Is a capable fighter, but just happened by sheer bad luck to be up against a considerably more badass opponent at the moment in which he was first introduced in the story. |
| 600 | * BirdsOfAFeather: Implied to have bonded very well with Shira over the course of their time together at the vets after their respective rescues. |
| 601 | * CurbStompBattle: Is ultimately soundly defeated by Smokey in their duel in ''Oozing From the Pit'', and would have been killed [[BigDamnHeroes if not for a timely intervention from Leon]]. |
| 602 | * CurbStompCushion: That being said though, he ''was'' able to put up quite a fight against Smokey even after receiving multiple wounds while barely even giving so much as a scratch to the bear. |
| 603 | * {{Determinator}}: As evidenced by how he was behaving over the course of his battle against Smokey, he clearly does not give up easily. |
| 604 | * HappilyMarried: Is revealed in ''The D-Bags'' to now be happily mated with Shira. |
| 605 | * ICanStillFight: Still refused to give up in his first battle against Smokey even after receiving multiple serious wounds. And he was still working to get himself back up onto his feet even after getting sent flying and engaging in a painful impact against the side of a tree after being sent flying towards it as well as an equally painful landing, and probably ''would have gotten back up all the way'' if Smokey hadn't been fast enough to charge on over in time to smack him back down before he'd finished getting back on his feet. |
| 606 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Forms a bond with Leon. |
| 607 | * MadeOfIron: He was still actively putting up a serious fight against Smokey during their first battle against each other even after receiving multiple serious scratches, bites, bruises, and other wounds. And as mentioned in ICanStillFight above, he was still able to make a conscious attempt to get back on his feet even after getting sent flying right up against the side of a large tree. |
| 608 | * MightyRoar: He is a smilodon, so he naturally engages in this during his duels against Smokey, and occasionally even during times of peace. |
| 609 | * PantheraAwesome: Again, he is a smilodon. |
| 610 | * PapaWolf: Proves to be viciously protective of his cubs three weeks after they're born by fighting his second ever duel against Smokey immediately after he catches the latter dangerously close to his and Shira's paddock over the course of the storm in ''Hell's Labyrinth''. |
| 611 | * PunchedAcrossTheRoom: Sent flying a small distance, and slamming against the side of a large tree, by a swing of one of Smokey's paws. |
| 612 | * TheRival: To Smokey the arctodus. |
| 613 | * ShoutOut: Is named after the famous saber-toothed tiger from ''WesternAnimation/IceAge''. |
| 614 | * UncattyResemblance: He and Leon are both very guarded and wary when around people or animals they don't know all that well and can give off antisocial vibes when on their own, but immediately let down their walls when around those they really care about. |

| 618 | A female smilodon fatalis. Was first rescued alongside multiple other animals in ''Oozing From the Pit'' from sinking to her doom in the La Brea Tar Pits. |
| 619 | ---- |
| 620 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Was rescued in the penultimate rescue mission before the 'series finale' of ''Prehistoric Earth''. In this story, she is rescued in the 5th episode of the 1st 'season'. |
| 621 | * AscendedExtra: Only underwent a few minor appearances at the park after her rescue in Prehistoric Earth. Here, she plays a much more prominent role at the park alongside Diego after her rescue. |
| 622 | * BabiesEverAfter: Has three cubs with Diego. |
| 623 | * BadassInDistress: Is a capable fighter and hunter, but just happened to be unlucky enough to go wandering into the La Brea Tar Pits. |
| 624 | * BirdsOfAFeather: Is implied to have bonded very well with Diego over the course of their time together at the vets after their respective rescues. They even share an exhibit together. |
| 625 | * GoodParents: Is a very doting and caring mother to her and Diego's cubs. |
| 626 | * HappilyMarried: Is revealed in ''The D-Bags'' to be happily mated with Diego (and even carrying his cubs). |
| 627 | * MightyRoar: Lets off one of these to announce her turf at the end of ''Oozing From the Pit''. |
| 628 | * QuicksandSucks: Was trapped in the La Brea Tar Pits at the time of her rescue. |
| 629 | * PantheraAwesome: She is a smilodon after all. |
| 630 | * ShoutOut: Is named after Diego's love interest in ''WesternAnimation/IceAgeContinentalDrift''. |

| 633 | [[folder:Nero]] |
| 634 | Alpha male of a dire wolf pack rescued in ''Oozing From the Pit''. Was one of the lucky victims rescued from sinking in the La Brea Tar Pits. |
| 635 | ---- |
| 636 | * ActionDad: An implied case in that the four members of his pack that are still youngsters might very well be his own pups. |
| 637 | * BadassInDistress: As capable of a leader as he is for his pack, he was just as helpless as they were in the La Brea Tar Pits. |
| 638 | * CanonForeigner: Neither he himself, nor his species, ever appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 639 | * HappilyMarried: To his mate Lara. |
| 640 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has formed a fairly close bond with Colette. |
| 641 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Named after the famed Roman emperor. |
| 642 | * NobleWolf: Acts very honorably as the alpha of his pack. Won't stop him from occasionally acting [[SavageWolves rather vicious]] though... |
| 643 | * PapaWolf: Literally. |
| 644 | * QuicksandSucks: Was trapped in the La Brea Tar Pits alongside his entire pack. |
| 645 | * TheRival: Views Dag the alpha male Pleistocene coyote as this. And it's very much a mutual feeling on Dag's end. |
| 646 | * SavageWolves: Will gladly show off his more fearsome side to those who get on his bad side; [[TheRival especially]] [[AnimalJingoism against]] [[ThoseWilyCoyotes Dag the Pleistocene coyote]]. |
| 647 | * UncattyResemblance: Much like Colette, he can be very tough, firm, and seemingly aloof, but cares strongly for and is viciously protective of those he has bonded closely with. |

| 652 | A lone female American Cheetah rescued by Alice in ''Oozing from the Pit''. |
| 653 | ---- |
| 654 | * BadassInDistress: She may be a fairly decent hunter, but she was still able to get seriously wounded by ''something'' prior to Alice first catching sight of her, and was subsequently left too weak and helpless to defend herself from [[CirclingVultures a hungry pair of teratornis]] that decided to try to finish the job and eat her. |
| 655 | * CanonForeigner: Neither she, nor her species, ever appeared in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 656 | * FragileSpeedster: Can run pretty fast, but was clearly not durable enough to avoid getting seriously wounded by whatever creature gave her the serious scratch wound across her side that she has when Alice first encounters her. |
| 657 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Has formed a decently close bond with Alice. |
| 658 | * PantheraAwesome: She is an American Cheetah. |

| 661 | [[folder:Dag]] |
| 662 | Alpha male of a pack of Pleistocene coyotes rescued in ''Oozing From the Pit''. Much like Nero and the other dire wolves, he and his pack were amongst the lucky victims rescued from the La Brea Tar Pits. |
| 663 | ---- |
| 664 | * BoisterousWeakling: He spends most of his scenes in "Hell's Labyrinth" picking fights he can't win - and humiliatingly losing. |
| 665 | * BullyingADragon: His frequent antagonism of Nero counts, since Nero could kill him easily, and [[spoiler:kicks his ass during the Shutdown]]. |
| 666 | * ButtMonkey: "Hell's Labyrinth" does not represent his finest hour - in quick succession, he gets sprayed in the face by a fire extinguisher, gets his ass kicked by Nero, before fleeing, attempts to raid the dromaeosaurus nest, before being curbstomped by Duke and, finally, having Nero snap at his tail as he retreats. |
| 667 | * CanonForeigner: Neither he, nor his species, were present in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 668 | * CombatPragmatist: The second time he and Nero face off, he's quick to bite Nero in the leg to gain an unfair advantage... and would have killed him if Duke hadn't shown up. |
| 669 | * DirtyCoward: A strange combination of this and FearlessFool. Whilst he's perfectly happy to [[BullyingADragon pick fights he can't win]] he's very quick to run when he realizes he's going to lose. |
| 670 | * FearlessFool: A strange combination of this and DirtyCoward - whilst he's perfectly happy to go round picking fights he can't win, he's very quick to run when he ends up humiliatingly losing. |
| 671 | * {{Foil}}: To Smokey. Both are the comparatively more antagonistic rivals to a Pleistocene La Brea predator (Diego for Smokey and Nero for Dag). But while Smokey is a big, strong, and tough bear that would be more than capable of killing Diego (and, indeed, very nearly did), Dag is a thin and comparatively weak coyote that would have no chance in a fair fight against Nero the dire wolf. |
| 672 | * OhCrap: His eyes noticeably widen at one point as if in horror while temporarily pinned to the Hell Creek forest building floor by Nero over the course of ''Hell's Labyrinth''. |
| 673 | * NotSoHarmless: He comes scarily close to killing Nero in "Breakout!" and would have succeeded if it weren't for Duke's intervention. |
| 674 | * QuicksandSucks: Was trapped in the La Brea Tar Pits alongside his entire pack. |
| 675 | * TheRival: To Nero [[AnimalJingoism the dire wolf]]. |

| 684 | ---- |
| 685 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: In ''Prehistoric Earth'', he isn't rescued until the final rescue mission to occur before the two-part 'series finale'. Here, he gets rescued in the 'mid-season finale' of the story's 2nd 'season'. |
| 686 | * BadassInDistress: He's a large, powerful cave bear... however, he's critically injured and on the brink of death when he's found, courtesy of an Ape Man hunting party. |
| 687 | * BearyFriendly: Zig-zags between this trope and BearsAreBadNews; he's normally rather placid, unless provoked. He's also mostly herbivorous, as his species was in real life. |
| 688 | * BearsAreBadNews: Zig-zags between this trope and BearyFriendly; whilst he normally isn't aggressive unless provoked, if you do provoke him...God help you. |
| 689 | * HandicappedBadass: Is blind in one eye and has a noticeable limp in one of his hindlegs. |

| 696 | ---- |
| 697 | * AdaptationDyeJob: His technical counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' had pale snowy white hair and can be inferred to have had a similarly colored mane. Here, in a visual homage to his namesake, his fur is a tawny gold and his mane is a fiery auburn. |
| 698 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: The closest thing he had to a counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' wasn't rescued until close to the tail end of the story. Here, he gets rescued at the midway point for 'season 2'. |
| 699 | * AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed. The closest thing he had to a counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' was introduced in a somewhat antagonistic light, attempting to hunt a mammoth calf and nearly killed Drew. Here, he is introduced wounded and afraid, but ultimately able to get calmed down by Leon and eventually even ends up forming a companionable bond with the boy. |
| 700 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: His technical counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' only had one scene in which he prominently interacted with Drew, which involved him trying to ''kill'' him. Here, whilst he snarls at Drew in the cave, he is calmed down by Leon (who barely interacted with his ''Prehistoric Earth'' counterpart. |
| 701 | * AscendedExtra: Played with. The closest thing he had to a counterpart in ''Fanfic/PrehistoricEarth'' only appeared in a single mission. In this story, however, he's being set up to have a much larger role to play in this story by virtue of forming a bond with Leon similar to the kind Leon has with Diego. |
| 702 | * BadassInDistress: He's first introduced resting and recovering from a vicious scratch in his side he got trying to hunt an [[BrutishBulls auroch]] by himself. |
| 703 | * FieryRedHead: Has a reddish brown mane and snarls aggressively at Drew and Leon... even seriously injured by an auroch's horn. |
| 704 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Forms a fairly companionable bond with Leon. |
| 705 | * KingOfBeasts: He is a cave lion, and is treated with a fair amount of awe and respect from Leon. |
| 706 | * MightyRoar: First introduces himself with a loud startled growl. |
| 707 | * PantheraAwesome: He is a cave lion - a species that was about as big as a Siberian tiger. |
| 708 | * ShipTease: Leon [[ShipperOnDeck actively works to play cupid]] between him and a rescued cave lioness his age named Nala. |
| 709 | * ShoutOut: Rather appropriately named after the protagonist of ''Franchise/TheLionKing''. |

| 714 | ---- |
| 715 | * ActionGirl: Being a lioness, she's both willing and more than capable of taking care of herself in a fight as well as a competent hunter. |
| 716 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: The closest thing she had to a counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' wasn't rescued until close to the tail end of the story. Here, she gets rescued at the midway point for 'season 2'. |
| 717 | * AdaptationalVillainy: Downplayed in that she's not truly a villain. However, while her counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' got swiftly sent through the portal before she had a chance to really prove herself a particularly big threat to Leon and Drew, here she gets to act far more comparatively antagonistic and threatening towards Drew after he and Leon interrupt her (solo in this story) efforts at hunting a woolly mammoth calf and very nearly manages to lunge upon Drew before Leon intervenes with a portal grenade. |
| 718 | * AscendedExtra: Played with. The closest thing she had to a counterpart in ''Prehistoric Earth'' was never explicitly referred to as Nala, but she ultimately gets implied to have a lot more to do in this story than said counterpart (who, for context, was only ever seen in the scenes where she and Simba's PE counterpart are first encountered and sent through the portal by Leon and Drew and later in their new paddock at the park before never being seen again for the remainder of the story). |
| 719 | * GreatWhiteFeline: Is an albino lioness. |
| 720 | * KingOfBeasts: She is a cave lioness, and a subject of great awe and respect from Leon. |
| 721 | * MegaNeko: Her species is capable of growing to about the size of a Siberian tiger at adulthood. |
| 722 | * MightyRoar: Is quick to let off an angry one of these after her efforts at hunting a woolly mammoth calf are rudely interrupted. |
| 723 | * PantheraAwesome: As previously established, she is a cave lion. |
| 724 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Being an albino, the blood veins in her eyes make her naturally pale blue eyes look a very unnerving red. |

| 733 | ---- |
| 734 | * AdaptationalNiceGuy: A downplayed example when it comes to his species. In ''Prehistoric Earth'', his species served as a partial KnightOfCerebus over the course of the chapter in which they were rescued. Here, he and the rest of his kind are 100% [[GentleGiant gentle giants]]. |
| 735 | * BearyFriendly: Whilst not truly a bear, he's often compared to one - and he's a GentleGiant. |
| 736 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Whilst he's a GentleGiant, he still weighs four tons and has seven-inch claws - piss him off at your peril. |
| 737 | * BigEater: Loves to eat. It's reached the point that he'll gladly shake any tree branches he's just finished eating from to see if any more leaves will come down for him to eat. He'll even do this to the branches of the mechanical feeding trees. |
| 738 | * CanonForeigner: While his species was rescued in Prehistoric Earth, he himself was not explicitly confirmed to be amongst the megatherium rescued in the former fanfic. |
| 739 | * CloudCuckooLander: He can be rather goofy and a tad dim at times. |
| 740 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Is normally a rather goofy GentleGiant but he's still a four-ton ground sloth with seven-inch claws. Piss him off at your peril. |

| 743 | * MightyGlacier: He's big and strong, but he's not incredibly fast. |
| 744 | * ShoutOut: Twofold. He is named after both the ground sloth character from the ''WesternAnimation/IceAge'' franchise and the titular protagonist from the novel Siddhartha by Creator/HermannHesse. His mate Camille is likewise named somewhat similarly to Siddhartha's sort of love interest Kamala from the same novel. |

| 752 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Can be plenty friendly when in a good mood. But regardless, his thick armor and powerful bludgeoned tail are ''not'' for show. |
| 753 | * BruiserWithASoftCenter: Wears a thick armored shell, has [[BewareMyStingerTail a tail with a spiked bludgeon at the tip]], and is about the size of a small Volkswagen, but is also perfectly capable of acting like a happy child playing with toys whenever he gets the chance to play with the exercise balls he and the others of his kind get to use as enrichment. |
| 754 | * CanonForeigner: There is no evidence that he personally was amongst the animals rescued in Prehistoric Earth. |
| 755 | * EpicFlail: What his tail essentially serves as. |
| 756 | * GentleGiant: When in a good mood of course. |
| 757 | * InterspeciesFriendship: While 'friendship' may be pushing things considering the rules of animal care, he has formed a bit of a bond with hoofstock keeper Horace Northup. |
| 758 | * MightyGlacier: Is not the fastest of animals amongst the park's animal repertoire by any means. But with his thick shell and large spiked tail, he hardly needs to be all that fast. |

In this story, her sister Ellie is SparedByTheAdaptation, and an entire herd of woolly mammoths, plus a single bull, are rescued alongside her and Ellie, thus leaving her loneliness issues from the original Prehistoric Park series downplayed at best. But on the other hand, she does end up suffering from PTSD over the traumatic experiences she and her sister underwent involving the Ape Man tribe that tried to hunt them, which she never had to go through in the original series. |
| 793 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: In ''Prehistoric Earth'', she wasn't rescued until near the tail end of the story. Here, she's rescued in the middle of the 2nd 'season'. |
| 794 | * AscendedExtra: Downplayed. While she did play a fairly prominent role in ''Fanfic/PrehistoricEarth'', she didn't get nearly as much to do in that story compared to her role in the original Prehistoric Park series due to just how close to the end of ''Prehistoric Earth'' she was rescued. Here, she gets considerably more opportunity to end up in the spotlight. |
| 795 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Whilst she's normally very placid and friendly, she's still a three-ton mammoth, and DOES NOT like it when she or someone she cares about is threatened. [[spoiler:In "Breakout!", Matilda got the message]]. |
| 796 | * BigSisterInstinct: Is very protective of her sister Ellie. |
| 797 | * BirdsOfAFeather: She and Nikolai are both big and tough figures with a soft heart and painful inner trauma underneath their tough exteriors. |
| 798 | * BruiserWithASoftCenter: Is a big burly woolly mammoth that can really kick ass when provoked, but has a soft and caring heart underneath her tough exterior. |
| 799 | * CruelElephant: Downplayed in that she initially behaves in rather hostile fashion when she first sees Jack and Nikolai outside a cave she's about to go walking into...but only because she's trying to defend her wounded sister. And she also proves understandably aggressive in a subsequent encounter with a Ape Man hunting party. |
| 800 | * GentleGiant: She's usually rather placid and friendly. |
| 801 | * HonorableElephant: When not acting to defend herself or her sister, she can be quite the trusting and kindly GentleGiant. |
| 802 | * InterspeciesFriendship: Aside from forming a close connection with Nikolai, she also forms a bond with Achilles the woolly rhino. |
| 803 | * MamaBear: [[spoiler:Takes on Matilda to protect Lyuba from her in "Breakout!"]] |
| 804 | * ShellShockedVeteran: Ends up suffering severe 'episodes' of PTSD at night after the traumatizing experience she and her sister Ellie underwent from nearly getting hunted and killed by the Ape Man hunting party. |
| 805 | * UncattyResemblance: Big, tough, but with a softer side and painful inner trauma - much like Nikolai. |
