A list of dinos that actually lived together

[Master Bateman]

If you are like me and prefer accurate exhibits, then this list will come in handy. I have grouped animals that we can reasonably infer lived together in real life, matching both time of their existence and where exactly they lived. I have also added information on their environment where available, even though JWE does not simulate biomes, so poor Rexy will have to keep on sweating in the tropical jungle.A few notes on how to use this list:

Hybrids are missing, for obvious reasons.

Some species can be "doubled" in places where there are known variants. For instance, Brachiosaurus is an American animal, but Giraffatitan (which is so similar it used to be called Brachiosaurus itself) is an African one. Make use of the skin variants to headcanon different environments!

Some dinosaurs are placed where they are as an approximation. There are some 15 million years between Torosaurus and Nodosaurus, but that was the closest grouping for the latter.

Other animals simply have no contemporaries in game (hello Dilo) or no animal that shared their ecosystem at that time (Muttaburra is pretty lonely, as is Giga).

This is obviously pretty imbalanced and I suspect it might clash with space optimization, so it's unlikely you can get all these exhibits in any one island. Social needs complicate it even further. I haven't come round to making a suggested exhibits list yet but I might.

Alright, enough waffling, here it is.

_
Very Late Cretaceous North America

Dracorex (dubious genus, might be a young Pachy)

Stygimoloch (dubious genus, might be a young Pachy)

Pachycephalosaurus

Edmontosaurus

Triceratops

Torosaurus

Ankylosaurus

Tyrannosaurus

Unnamed variant of Struthiomimus

Environment: flat, forested floodplain, coasts and streams

_

Late Cretaceous North America

Struthiomimus

Styracosaurus

Chasmosaurus

Corythosaurus

Parasaurolophus (yes, apparently it stretches that far back)

Pentaceratops

Maiasaura

Nodosaurus (has no contemporaries in game, this is the closest bracket)

Environment: rivers and floodplains, occasional swampy approaches to water

_

Late Cretaceous China and Mongolia

Velociraptor (exception to environment: semi-desert for this guy)

Gallimimus

Archaeornithomimus

Crichtonsaurus (dubious genus)

Tsintaosaurus (not a real contemporary but reasonably close)

Pro tip: Tarbosaurus was essentially an Asian T.rex, so can be included with skin variants

Environment: rivers and shallow lakes, sand dunes in some formations

_

Late Cretaceous Madagascar

Majungasaurus (feels lonely man). Madagascar used to be an island back then as well, so no cigar

Environment: I have absolutely no clue

_

Late Cretaceous South America

Carnotaurus

Giganotosaurus (some 30 million years earlier)

Environment: I have absolutely no clue

_

Early Cretaceous North America

Deinonychus

Sauropelta

(Fun fact: if we had Acrochantosaurus, it would go here)

Environment: wide floodplains and swamps

_

Early Cretaceous Europe

Polacanthus

Baryonyx

Environment: wetlands, marshes and lagoons

_

Early Cretaceous Australia/Antarctica

Muttaburrasaurus (feels lonely, man)

Environment: temperate forests

_

Early Cretaceous Africa

Spinosaurus

Suchomimus

(Fun fact, if we had Ourano and Carcha they would go here)

Environment: wetlands, marshes and lagoons

Note that Suchomimus and Spinosaurus don't necessarily overlap, as Sucho/Ourano lived slightly earlier and further South than Spino/Carcha (for JPOG reference)

_

Very Early Cretaceous Europe

Metriachantosaurus (feels lonely, man)

Environment: lagoons and tropical coasts

_

Late Jurassic North America

Stegosaurus

Allosaurus

Ceratosaurus

Brachiosaurus

Apatosaurus

Diplodocus

Camarasaurus

Environment: semiarid savannah with distinct wet and dry season

_

Late Jurassic Africa

Kentrosaurus

Brachiosaurus (technically, its African variant Giraffatitan)

Allosaurus (its African variant)

Ceratosaurus (its two African variants)

Environment: shallow lagoons with flat coasts and inland vegetation

_

Middle and Late Jurassic China

Gigantspinosaurus

Huayangosaurus

Chungkingosaurus

Mamenchisaurus

Environment: I have absolutely no clue

_

Early Jurassic North America

Dilophosaurus (feels lonely, man)

Environment: tropical riverrine jungle

Note: a Chinese Dilophosaurus was described in 1993, but was later assigned to a different genus, Sinosaurus.

dam this boy did work buuuut he missing Compys they are late jurassic europe, Albertosuras late Cretaceous weastern north america, Euoplocephalus late Cretaceous canada, ouranosaurus early Cretaceous niger biome floodplain, Nigersuarus mid/early Cretaceous republic of niger biome inland floodplains, homolocephale late Cretaceous mongolia , Dryosaurus late jurassic western US, Herrerasaurus Late Triassic south south america biome Volcanicly active floodplain,Acrocanthosaurus early Cretaceous East/mid US ,Proceratosaurus late/mid jurassic england, Iguanodon early Cretaceous europe, Dreadnoughtus Late Cretaceous south south america ,Carcharadontosuarus mid late Cretaceous northern africa.

please place them in the appropriate places, youll need to make a new catigory for Herrerasaurus the first and lonlyest of dinos. got my info from wikipedia (i know cringey) i think i got them all that he missed currently; late 2020.

can we get an update on this or no?

That is real world and has nothing to do with this game.

[Nemo]

how does this not have to do with the game, all the dinos in the list is in the game, but is the list complete are we missing any dinos that are in the game.

The classification of a dinosaur (giant, small, armored, large and medium for herbivores only) can be found in its info tab.

+ Small and large carnivores do NOT attack each other (includes Indominus Rex)
- - exception: Indoraptor DOES attack small carnivores

+ GIANT herbivores are NOT attacked
- - exception: Indominus Rex DOES attack though
- - exception 2: the Nigersaurus (Herbivore DLC) IS attacked by large carnivores, treat him as ARMORED herbviore instead!

+ small carnivores also do not attack armored herbivores
- - treat Nigersaurus as armored in terms of this rule
- - by implication large carnivores do attack armored. Some large carnivores do not insta-kill these and are referred to by some as "medium" carnivores - a classification that does not exist in-game though.

+ small and medium herbivores are attacked by ANY carnivore eventually
- - exception: Compsognathus (Return to JP DLC) does NOT attack, not even goats from live bait feeders (but are a threat to visitors) :JurassicWorldEvolutionGoat:
+ large carnivores fight with large carnivores
+ small carnivores fight with small carnivores (poor Compsognathus are insta-swallowed)
+ Indoraptor fights both

PENS
If you build a fence and you stretch it to the maximum, thats what I use as a LENGTH UNIT in this explanation. A square with one length unit in both dimensions is about 2000 square meter big. All except three dinosaurs in Claires campaign fit in an enclosure of 2x2 length units. T-Rex needs 3x2 length units. Brachiosaurus and Apatosaurus need 6x2 length units. Always make sure to have enough forest and grasland. for the Brachio-Apato-Enclosure it was a try-and-error process to get just the right amount of both, as it just fits in. I made some screenshots.

This is game information...lol If you try building an enclosure and adding the like dinos according to reality you will have escapees eating park visitors!

hazardhawk now your just trolling this list is for people who play this game and want accurate exhibits. ive already been using it successfully no problems. yes this list has to do with the game.

Not trolling. Agreed that while you can put some of those together, you CANNOT put all from a section together. Group one, the Tyrannosaurus would attack every other species in that group. Then the remainder of group one without the T-rex would all go nuts from population in the red if you meet each of their social. Pretty much each group you have there is the same.

[Nemo]

you know you can change the social pop in the options of the the game mode to not have that problem. predator still kills though for no reason so you just gotta keep up a flow of herbs, it would be nice if they killed when they were hungry but they don't witch is AI problem and my main gripe with the game .

Very interesting list, thanks!
