Resident Species

Resident Species

Twenty-three species, resurrected from Cretaceous amber and roaming unrestrained across Isla Extinctus.

The Amber Reserve represents the absolute pinnacle of paleogenomics. Our geneticists have successfully recovered, sequenced, and viable-hatched twenty-three prehistoric species, establishing a balanced, self-sustaining ecosystem.

Here is a catalog of the primary residents you will encounter during your stay.


1. Tyrant Lizard (Tyrannosaurus rex)

The undisputed crown jewel of Isla Extinctus. An eight-tonne predator of unmatched power, roaming the Central Savanna.

  • Classification: Apex Carnivore
  • Length: 12.0 metres
  • Weight: 8,200 kg
  • Threat Level: EXTREME

Behavior and Range

The Tyrant Lizard patrols a territory of approximately 2,000 acres in the north-central savanna. Primarily active during dawn and dusk, this solitary predator tracks migratory herds of horned herbivores. Guests are advised to remain within the reinforced safari vehicle at all times while traversing this sector.


2. Horned Colossus (Triceratops horridus)

A heavily armored herbivore bearing three formidable brow and nasal horns, observed in tight family herds.

  • Classification: Armored Herbivore
  • Length: 9.0 metres
  • Weight: 6,500 kg
  • Threat Level: LOW

Behavior and Range

The Horned Colossus is highly social, migrating in herds of up to forty through the lowland fern forests. While generally docile and accustomed to our safari vehicles, they are fiercely protective of their young and will charge if they perceive a boundary breach.


3. Winged Titan (Quetzalcoatlus northropi)

An aerial predator with a wingspan comparable to a small private aircraft, patrolling the island thermals.

  • Classification: Aerial Predator
  • Wingspan: 11.0 metres
  • Weight: 210 kg
  • Threat Level: HIGH

Behavior and Range

Housed within our massive, high-tensile mesh Aviary, the Winged Titans are magnificent flyers. They spend their days riding warm volcanic thermals before roosting along the sheer basalt cliffs. Their diet consists of fresh fish harvested from the inner lagoon.


4. Pack Hunter (Velociraptor antirrhopus)

An exceptionally intelligent, highly agile pack predator operating with unprecedented coordination.

  • Classification: Pack Carnivore
  • Height: 1.8 metres
  • Weight: 75 kg
  • Threat Level: CRITICAL

Behavior and Range

Due to their high intelligence and coordinated hunting patterns, our Pack Hunters are kept under constant, strict containment parameters in a specialized forested sector. They operate in highly structured packs of five to eight, communicating through complex vocalizations and demonstrating problem-solving capabilities that require absolute surveillance.


Threat Classification System

To ensure guest safety, The Amber Reserve maintains a strict Threat Classification System for all residents:

  • LOW: Docile unless actively provoked. Safe for close-range vehicle observation.
  • HIGH: Aggressive territorial behaviors. Requires armored vehicle observation and active close-protection escort.
  • EXTREME: Solitary apex predators. Tracked constantly via sub-dermal geofencing; perimeter barriers are reinforced with redundant backup power.
  • CRITICAL: High-intelligence pack predators. Kept under maximum security; direct encounters are strictly prohibited outside specialized viewing decks.
