Notes from the Jurassic Park chronology
This episode takes place almost immediately after the events of
"A Beacon of Hope".
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 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?
The two Baryonyx featured in this episode gain the
names Chaos (female) and Limbo (male) at the end, given by
Sammy. A third
Baryonyx is freed from her cage at the end of
the episode and gets the name Grim. All three play roles in
later episodes as well.
Darius tells Sammy that
Baryonyx eat more than 100 pounds of meat a day.
I've been unable to confirm if this was true. The species
largely ate fish, and probably small land animals when it could.

Notes from the junior
novelization
Jurassic World:
Camp Cretaceous - The Deluxe Junior Novelization
Volume Two
by Steve Behling

2020
Chapters 4-9 cover the events of this episode. |
Characters appearing or mentioned on the novelization,
not in the televised episode
Mosasaurus (mentioned only)
Sammy tells Yasmina that she'll need to treat her injured ankle
with some TLC or she wouldn't be winning any medals at track
meets. TLC, of course, stands for "Tender Loving Care".
In the novelization, Darius, Sammy, and Brooklyn find two
predators in cages near the medical supply station, the
Baryonyx and a Ceratosaurus. In the
televised episode, there was only the
Baryonyx.
Ceratosaurus made an appearance in
Jurassic Park III and will show up
in a few later episodes of this series.
On page 33, Darius points out to Sammy that the
Ceratosaurus eats 250 pounds of meat a day.
