the Jurassic Park Wiki
Didja Know?
Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous is a CG-animated TV
series that aired on the
Netflix
streaming service from 2020-2022 for five seasons and one
special. While the first couple of episodes take place before
and during the events of
Jurassic World,
the rest of them take place shortly after that film, and about
three years before the events of
Fallen Kingdom. Netflix is currently producing episodes
of a sequel series, Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, whose
first season began in May 2024.
Each episode of the
series opens with the words "A Netflix Original Series" over
what appears to be a T. rex footprint in the jungle mud.
The
Universal Pictures logo that appears after this is altered
from the usual to have the Earth globe with a continent that
looks very roughly like the supercontinent Pangaea may have
looked in the Triassic-Jurassic periods of the Mesozoic era,
200-150 million years ago.
As the Universal Earth globe spins, a second "continent"
seen is actually a stylized
DreamWorks Pictures logo (a boy sitting with a fishing pole
on the crescent Moon), followed by the
Amblin Entertainment logo.
The dinosaur that bursts out of the
Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous gates at the beginning of
the opening titles of each episode is a Tyrannosaurus rex,
possibly the infamous Rexy herself, but we don't see its right
side close enough to see if it has Rexy's raptor scars incurred
in Jurassic Park.

Didja Notice?
Kenji refers to Brooklynn by the nickname "Superstar".
The closed cell Sammy stops to listen at at
about 4:43 in the
episode later turns out to be the cell a Ceratosaurus
is kept in.
The campers find information at the Mantah Corp compound that
various dino DNA samples were extracted from living specimens on
Isla Sorna and Isla Nublar. These are the two islands used by
InGen for its Jurassic Park and Jurassic World dinosaur
programs.
Isla Nublar was Site A, where the parks proper were located and
Isla Sorna was Site B, where most of the breeding took place
before specimens were transferred to Site A for display.
Darius and Kash play a Jurassic World video game.
Notice that the logo on the game's opening splash screen is the
same T. rex skeleton logo of the Jurassic Park/World
parks.
