* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: The Ceratosaurus pack that tries to take the lone apatosaurus in quick sand as prey have to contend with a float of [[SeldomSeenSpecies Diplosaurus and Amphicotylus]]. Several species of small terrestrial crocodilians encountered by the Denhams in a denuded Jurassic forest also prove a bit of an annoyance in getting through the portal as well.
* PrehistoricMonster: Averted, despite the Ceratosaurus, Allosaurus, and Saurophaganax seemingly appearing quite nasty.
* ProperlyParanoid: Khatin proves not entirely wrong to ask about the possibility of the team encountering undiscovered species when the team ends up indeed encountering and bringing back at least two undiscovered species of pterosaur, plus a few undiscovered species of prehistoric mammal.
* PteroSoarer: Averted with the pterosaurs rescued in this mission.
* QuickSandSucks: A lone male Apatosaurus is found stuck in quicksand by the rescue team after already getting grievously wounded via a bite to his back from a Saurophaganax, [[FromBadToWorse before then ending up]] also at risk of getting eaten by a pack of Ceratosaurus and a combined float of [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile Diplosaurus and Amphicotylus]]. Thankfully, he is saved. There is also an adult Apatosaurus that gets found in quicksand later; only this one is already long dead and being feasted upon by two flocks of scavenging pterosaurs.
* RaptorAttack: Averted so far with the Ornitholestes.
* RealityEnsues: Unlike in Prehistoric Earth, where this was barely (if at all) touched upon, it is quite clear as early as the very first mission that, since Jack and Alice don't know Drew, Leon, and Adrian nearly as well as they know each other, and vice versa, the team proves understandably rusty in working together when they first start work in rescuing animals for the park.
* SeldomSeenSpecies: Camptosaurus, Camerasaurus, and Stokesosaurus, among other lesser known animals, are amongst the species rescued alongside the target.
* StockDinosaurs: Allosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Apatosaurus, and Stegosaurus are amongst the animals rescued.
* Reasonable Authority Figure: Theodore and all the park heads of staff prove themselves this to varying capacities.
