It was science, and science is just messing about but you record it.

I am foreseeing adorable home videos of a Rex Puppy playing with a chew toy
What about full grown Rexy with there tire chew toy.

Nah, not a tire
A Rex Sized KONG toy!
, with a haunch of beef tucked insidePR says no. The focus group reacted badly when the Kong toy started oozing blood.Nah, not a tire

Squakey toy for baby years, giant bone shaped chew toy for adult years.
He likes the squeek because it sounds like the deathrattle of a small animal. So cute!

Some of them shown outside her exhibit.
Show off how cute she was, and now how she is.

You know..... With the Sheltered Island being a Transport Hub..... We could have Tunnels linking the Islands?
Both for moving Goods and Livestock, as well as emergency Tunnels.
What could also be fun, is Transparent Tunnels like in Aquariums that give amazing views of all the sealife like Corals and Fish etc.

Bad idea, while underwater tunnels between 10-12 km and up to 300 meters deep are perfectly feasible, we are in a very geologically active area, which is really bad for tunnels...

At most there are going to be glass-bottomed boat rides for guests looking to get a slightly less crowded transit over to the main park. But yeah, given that the geological instability of the island was one of Elliot's main points of pushback against the lagoon, the tunnels would be an even worse idea.
We might want to hire some marine biologists at some point to watch over the local reefs and marine life. In the future we can make boat tours and guided scuba dives among our attractions.

This should be considered an important priority for our park.
The viewing areas need to not only provide a good view of the animals, but they should also educate our visitors as well. The information must go beyond the generic "Fun Facts" and "Did you know?", that would otherwise normally be found in a half-decent dinosaur fact book for children.
We should have videos showing the dinosaurs when they were hatchlings, juveniles and mature adults, pictures of named animals and encourage visitors to try and look for them, and maybe have park staff (whether they're animal keepers, park rangers or dedicated tour guides, etc.) in the viewing areas as well and talk to visitors about the animals they work with.
Our Jurassic Park must try and avoid the situation, where visitors just hang around for a few minutes, take pictures from their cameras (and later on their smartphones) and leave without learning anything about the dinosaurs that they've just seen.
Does this mean we're not going to be able to eventually build habitats for formerly extinct aquatic animals down the line?
I can understand why it's a terrible idea to bring back the giant mosasaurs, pliosaurs and sharks and put them on display in a park environment. But it would be a real pity if it's not possible to bring back and exhibit the smaller marine animals (Plesiosaurus, Ichthyosaurus, Attenborosaurus, various Ammonites, etc.) or even the semi-aquatic spinosaurs (Baryonyx and Spinosaurus).

No, you'll be able to build habitats for aquatic animals eventually. Just not ones that have a direct line to the ocean, and whose barriers could theoretically break down upon the event of an eruption or earthquake.
Spinosaurus and Baronyx are both certainly possible since they're not oceanic in the first place. But something like a Deinosuchus is right the hell out.

In Nublar, or it would be in another island?
Muerte and Pena seem to have the greatest amount of even ground, so it would be batter to make the tanks for the creatures...

Could always go with Kaprosuchus instead!
More terrestrial Croc that runs down it's prey like a Cheetah
A nice freshwater environment could be really cool too.
Oh, had an idea. What about camera's on rails linked to viewing stations? Like the Binocular things on bridges/towers you can put quarters in? Put in some change and you get X Minutes of camera time, with a few movable camera being on tracks built into the environment in a way that doesn't disturb the dinos
Like Remote control Pokemon Snap
Could be really neat for certain enclosure types, and let people get closer looks without endangering themselves or the dinos like the dumb bubble car things from Jurassic World

No Mosasaurs please.

Ehhhh
There are more reasonably sized mosasaurs then Tylosaurus (the big one from World)
Something like Plioplatecarpus would be manageable. Icthys would be cool too for dolphin lovers!
Depending on their temperament you might even be able to swim with some of the smaller mosas.
-Edit-
There are also smaller Freshwater Mosasaurs like this guy-

The problem here is that the audience clearly wants to see the sea giant. To present a promoted animal is beneficial for business.

So I got to thinking a few nights back, and a thought came to me:
We need to work on exhibit visibility. Simply put, guests wanna see the animals at our Park, so we're gonna have to find a way to keep them visible. Maybe cut down on the trees, or install a bait vent of some sort?
Also had some attractions I was thinking about-
A beach area, basically a good spot by the ocean for people to go to cool down and such. Obvious as well, tropics.
A aquarium, possibly with smaller prehistoric fish and such, along with animals that existed back then, as a nice cool area to walk around, again, in the heat.
A IMAX theater for stuff like Walking with Dinosaurs, Last Day on Earth, that sorta thing.
Night tours in some of the more peaceful exhibits, for guests who pay out the nose and sign waivers.
An area about paleontology, with a mock digsite, perhaps?
Modern Day Dinosaurs- Show off descendants of the dinos we have, chickens, Komodo Dragons, that kinda thing.
Something exclusive for the ones who really pay out the nose. No idea what, but should be good.
