CONFIDENTIAL: CERATOSAURUS CREEK BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS

SUPERVISOR ANALYSIS: These photos were sent in by our Head Carnivore, Nathan after noticing unusual behavior at the Ceratosaur Paddock while prepping some treats for the Ceratosaurus (Nate can be seen at the bottom right.) He accessed the screenshots of the security cams from multiple locations at the Enclosure, all at the exact same time. The Ceratosaurus’ usually grumpy, destructive, combative attitude suddenly shifted. Although the Ceratosaur has never been “aggressive” in the sense Raptors and Tyrannosaurs are, it usually is picky and enjoys destroying things in its environments, such as uprooting trees, knocking over rocks, and smashing through forested areas. Basically, it has a destructive disposition. However, a father was documented bringing his 3 year old son (Both on the viewing platform, middle) to the dinosaur’s paddock, plush Ceratosaur toy in tow. When the Ceratosaur approached the father and son twosome the boy held his toy up to the enormous theropod and said “I brought you a present.” The Ceratosaur sniffed the air then peered down at the boy. It was calm, for just about the first time in all my experience of being a Jurassic World Staff Director of Animal Welfare and Safety. It looked at the boy, curious and playful. Then it started panting similar to a dog. Finally, it bumped noses with the glass in front of the little boy. It had bonded with him. Then it wandered off. Leaving the boy and father behind, wide-eyed at their encounter. This is an enormous step in positive interactions with the Ceratosaurus in the future, and we will study the behavior and adapt to it as necessary soon. Thank you,

Also a sneak-peek of my next enclosure. To be posted tomorrow. The next one is actually the piece of work that is my fanart entry to noah's contest. Can anyone guess what enclosure it is?
