** Atherton was originally Ingen's main geneticist before Wu showed up in the first book, and it would easily lead to premature fan speculation about Maise's true nature if they figured out that he had firsthand experience in genetic engineering, rather than just being a venture capitalist like Hammond.

** The ''Indoraptor'' we see is a "prototype" Wu explicitly states that it isn't intended for sale and needs more work to be viable, it's why they wanted Blue, her genetics are stable and she is the most "docile" predator they know of, presumably Blues genes would be used as a template to "upgrade" the Indoraptor and that one would be discarded.

** The Indoraptor seems to be suffering from a neurological degradation, if you look at when it moves, it is almost constantly having twitches and spasms, as though it's nervous system isn't getting the right signals through, that could have effected the lungs ability to breathe right.

** Most of the predators by that point were already long dead. While many of the herbivores would be easy pickings for some carnivores, not all of them were. An ''Ankylosaurus'' had enough bashing power in its tail to shatter a ''T. rex'' femur, and a ''Stegosaurus'' could impale a predator with the spikes on its tail, as could a Triceratops, and a ''Styracosaurus'' with their horns. As for the carnivores themselves, all but Rexy have zero experience in actually hunting another dinosaur. Ergo, some of the carnivores would have likely thought they could take something down solo that would normally have required a group effort. RealityEnsues.

* The concept of genetically engineered military dinos may have some legitimacy under the right circumstances, but the way it was done in the movie was absurd. Basically, you have to position the Indoraptor on standby relatively near the target without anybody noticing, and have a soldier with a designator gun paint the target so the Indo goes and kill it. Obviously, a sniper could do the same job much more efficently at a fraction of the cost.

Sure, the blood was "contaminated", but that shouldn't have been more than a mild inconvenience - some extra work in the lab, a few more hours of computing time.

** To be fair, they will probably try and hunt down the more "dangerous" species such as the Rex and the Carno, probably won't find Blue as she is small and will probably stick to woodlands, the Mosasaurus will definitly be hunted down if it snacks on some surfers, some of the more aggressive Herbivores will either be hunted or relocated (think about how much a set of horns from a Trike will fetch from a trophy collector)but that are calmer and gentler (as gentle as a dino can be) things like a Brachy and a para will probably be left alone or again relocated after capture, they are off the island and are now more endangered than ever, public support will probably ramp up to protect the few left, though Roberta (the Rex) might be captured by the government after they find out that Dr. Wu is now essentially creating Hybrid Monster weapons rather than dinos for an amusement park.

** in the film, the ''Indoraptor'' seemed a little hyperactive, probably due to being cooped up in a cage constantly, if you notice when the elevator closed up when it first got out, it instantly lost interest, also it has a sonic trigger noise to start hunting, which is high pitched, so maybe some wires got crossed when Maisie screamed as she ran away, note that it doesn't take alot for it to lose interest, so maybe it just found it fun to hunt the only prey it could smell nearby.

** There is also the possibility that due to the fact that it was a degenerated creature and it seems to have the dino equivilent of asthma, that its much touted sense of smell had degraded too, all the great features the Indo was supposed to have, were infact what the ''next generation of Indoraptors'' would have, seeing as they seemed to think using blue would sort out all the crap wrong with Indo, essentially Indo was the showroom model, great to look at but not fully functional, the next generation would look somewhat the same but have all the special features.

** Because if the dinosaurs were to cost 9 or 10 figures each, then the audience is going to think that the total box office revenue for this movie might be weak in comparison to the total payout for all dinosaurs combined. Universal Pictures knows that a Jurassic World movie can only gross around the low 10-figures ''at best'', and they don't want the audience getting a bad impression of their finances.

** Plus Wu has had many years to practice his work and has long since given up any pretension of recreating "real" dinosaurs. He probably makes a few additions or alterations at the conceptual stage to make the new dinos more viable and survivable in modern conditions, enough that they could probably survive in less than ideal circumstances - especially if he's been contemplating auctioning them off for any length of time.
