Do you guys ever think about how everytime a character has gotten a baby anklyosaur they've been given a major character arc. Something about the healing power of baby anklyos.

+ A thank you from many different artists!

Appreciation Note to the Chaos Crew:

Camp Cretaceous and Chaos Theory have been apart of my life for 5 years and I've loved every second of it, 6 years ago I watched the first teaser of Camp Cretaceous, I was excited, I was curious, I stayed up until 1 am for it's release.. I have done that since, as I am right now! These shows have brought me so much happiness, my shelves are filled to the brim with dinosaur figures, I have notebooks filled with doodles of dinosaurs and people, all because of these shows. 2022 was one of my roughest years, our house caught fire, my closest grandmother passed away, so many things kept happening, but Camp Cretaceous helped me, it comforted me, even when it felt like nothing was there. When it ended I cried A LOT, especially when Yasmina and Sammy got together, Yasammy means so much to me, it was one of the first times I saw a Queer relationship just out in a show I watched, by then I knew I was different, I felt different, and in someway Camp Cretaceous helped me feel less different and that I was just myself, that I was 'normal'. Telling my parents that I was gay was one of the hardest things I've ever had to tell them, I wasn't afraid, I was worried they'd see me differently, but it wasn't, I never thought a show would ever prepare me for it, but it did. When Chaos Theory was first rumored, I almost couldn't believe it, 2 years after ending.. a new one? It's not crazy but I didn't believe it! Once it actually got announced, I don't think I've ever felt so shocked and happy, like.. ever. Chaos Theory is everything Camp Cretaceous was and more, it's such an amazing show, every season it gets better and better, with season 4 coming out (or out now since this is scheduled) I am extremely excited, but also sad, Chaos Theory has felt almost even more emotional to me, watching them reunite, fall apart again and again, but they still always find each other in the dark, even if they can't bear to look at each other. Yasammy breaking up broke my heart into a million pieces, somehow I knew it was coming, but also not really. It felt weird for a minute, watching a relationship grow, just to go unsteady, and for it to almost sink. But in the end it felt natural, I get why they broke up, it's been fleshed out since the beginning, it felt weird because it's barely happened to Queer relationships, especially in a show like this, it feels natural, it's *normal*. And looking at all the characters, they do things that so many people are scared to use, Limb difference, PTSD, Self-Destruction..

These shows are not afraid to say things as it is and it's why it's so different from so many shows especially for its rating. Darius has been my favorite from the beginning, a Dino nerd that fights for the people they love, in some ways I've faced similar things than him, he's so similar to me that sometimes it feels uncanny. All these characters have complex stories, it's all because of the people that worked on these shows, I am forever grateful to all of you, each and every person, each and every writer, storyboarder, animator, background artist, concept artist, rigger, producer, editor, character designer. All of you guys have brought these shows together, I'll do my best to support all of you onwards of this project. Obviously I must say that the Actors also brought all of this home, they have given emotion and so many tears to me, so many times it feels natural, one day I really want to meet them, having missed the past times, they have brought so much to the show and they are literally so cool by the way.. These shows have also helped me grow into an even better artist, as you can see, even just in the past year, I've been able to improve to this, they motivated me in ways I haven't been in a long, long time. These shows are everything to me, I am sad to see it go once and for all, but I am grateful for every single second, every single season.

Thank you, all of you for this Journey,

Camp fam for life!! 🦖🦖❤️

From a comical perspective having a dinosaur with insane armor makes sense because plot armor.

But from a deeper perspective having a dinosaur thats main feature is armor aka sonething that keeps it safe paired with children who have lost their feeling of safety is very symbolic.

But it also highlights the times bumpy wasnt there.

Bumpy wasnt there when Mitch and Tiff plotted to use the campers

Bumpy helped Ben defeat Toro and overcome his fears.

Bumpy wasnt there when Yaz developed her PTSD.

Ben questions his braveness when they leave Bumpy on Nublar.

Bumpy flees before The Long Run, prompting the kids to protect themselves.

Im just saying, Bumpy's proximity to the campers usually demonstrates how safe they feel or their mental state in various situations.

"Do you know how expensive raising a child is these days?"

"Have you ever stopped and asked yourself how I'd explain that to our son?"

"Late nights, early mornings, long noons... I'd have to do it all by myself!"

"Do you even have life insurance?"

"I'd have to resign from my climbing business to focus on our child without you around!"
