History
Not much is known about the early history of Isla Sorna, save for the fact it was InGen’s factory floor for the park. Peter Ludlow, John Hammond‘s nephew, uses the opportunity of an accident that happened on Isla Sorna to a little girl (Cathy Bowman) to take control of the inGen board and company from his uncle. Ludlow promises to finish JP: San Diego by taking a team to Isla Sorna to capture dinosaurs. Ian Malcolm is summoned to lead an expedition to Isla Sorna, where he finds out Sarah Harding, his girlfriend, is already there. Ian Malcolm and his team arrive in time to save Sarah from a herd of angry Stegosaurs. Unfortunately, Ian discovers that his daughter, Kelly, has stowed away to the island, and he wants to find a way off the island only to see Ludlow’s team arrive on Site B to begin their harvest. As Ian and his team watch the hunters helplessly, Roland Tembo begins his quest to trap a male T.rex, his fee. Everything seems to be going well for the InGen Hunter team until Nick Van Owen launches a daring plan to free the dinosaurs. As the Hunter Camp is in chaos, Nick stumbles upon the Baby Rex that Roland abducted, after Ludlow unwittingly broke the animal’s leg. Nick takes the Baby Rex back to the RV to have it’s broken leg mended, but mother and father Rex show up and want their baby back. Both the hunter’s camp, from the rampaging herbivores, and the gatherer’s camps, from the angry Tyrannosaurs, are destroyed. Both groups agree to set aside their philosophical differences and try to make way to the town to summon help to escape Isla Sorna. The Tyrannosaurs followed the group and had ambushed the camp; however, Roland Tembo launched a daring plan to tranquilize the male Rex. As the hunter and gatherer teams scatter they unwittingly venture into Velociraptor territory, through the Long Grass, to go to the town to call for help. Nick makes it to the call and every one is rescued, but inGen takes their prize back to San Diego only to discover keeping it was the worse idea in the long, sad history of bad ideas, and Ludlow pays the price.
