The various creatures in the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World films were created through a combination of animatronics and computer-generated imagery (CGI). For each of the films, Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) has handled dinosaur scenes that required CGI.

Iguanodon appear in Jurassic World: Dominion where it is created by Biosyn in 2022.

Bring big fun home with the Super Colossal Giganotosaurus in a mighty size – more than 3 FEET LONG. It's sure to tower over any dinosaur lover's collection and ready to chow down on any minis in the house!

Giganotosaurus ' It's called the Giganotosaurus – but for short, it's known as the 'Giga'. This one isn't a genetic hybrid like the Indominus and the Indoraptor – it's a scientifically-documented giant of the Late Cretaceous period. But like its scaly brethren, it's none too pleased to find itself roaming around in the modern day.

Select Dinosaur Species

• Coleophysis bauri. Coelophysis, was a light, agile, 8 to 10-foot-long dinosaur.
• Plateosaurus engelhardti.
• Allosaurus fragilis.
• Apatosaurus excelsus.
• Barosaurus lentus.
• Camarasaurus lentus.
• Camptosaurus dispar.
• Diplodocus longus.

If you grew up loving Brontosaurus only to be told it wasn't a real dinosaur, it's time to rejoice: the gentle giant may have received a new lease on life. The giant sauropod, long thought to be an Apatosaurus that someone got wrong, was actually its own type of dinosaur all along, scientists say Tuesday in PeerJ.

Trevorrow says all the dinosaurs he used in the film actually existed, including the enormous Gigantosaurus. “I wanted to make sure everything was in the paleontological record,” he says. “We were asked to do this six months ahead, and time started creeping away,” Nolan says.

Another new creature in the film is Moros Intrepidus. The dinosaur was originally found in Utah and like the Pyroraptor, the animal's size is a bit exaggerated. Shown to be barely the size of the Giganotosaurus teeth and jaw, the Moros was actually about as tall as an average human's shoulder.

"Tyrannosaurus rex remains the one true king of the dinosaurs. It is the only species of giant apex predator dinosaur that lived at the end of the Cretaceous in North America," Brusatte added.

Therizinosaurus The Therizinosaurus' blindness also serves as a narrative device for Jurassic World Dominion's final fight. Only when the Giga is about to overpower the T-Rex, the Therizinosaurus fatefully enters the battleground and starts attacking the Giga.

Called Vectipelta barretti, it has been named in honour of Museum dinosaur expert Professor Paul Barrett, who is one of the world's leading experts on dinosaurs. The new species has been published in the Journal of Systematic Palaeontology.

The results of this study, which were based on estimated real global biodiversity, showed that between 628 and 1,078 non-avian dinosaur species were alive at the end of the Cretaceous and underwent sudden extinction after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.

First Dinosaurs. Approximately 230 million years ago, during the Triassic Period, the dinosaurs appeared, evolved from the reptiles. Plateosaurus was one of the first large plant-eating dinosaurs, a relative of the much larger sauropods. It grew to about 9 meters in length.

Named Nyasasaurus parringtoni, the roughly 243-million-year-old fossils represent either the oldest known dinosaur or the closest known relative to the earliest dinosaurs.

Dinosaur Names and Their Meanings In 1841, Richard Owen, the first director of London's Natural History Museum, gave the name dinosaurs to these giant prehistoric reptiles. The word dinosaur is from the Greek deinos (terrible) and sauros (lizard). Some dinosaur names are short; others are tongue twisters.
