For some reason, I keep thinking something like X-Raptor (Gardaland) would be a nice fit for JP (behind Thunder Falls):
I also like the Raptor Encounter idea too (replace the old Trike Encounter with it) and that JP institute idea.
Gosh I thought of that too! Or maybe a flyer that replaces the silly PF. :bonk:
I don't understand why they don't just double PF's capacity by lengthening or widening its trains. It's the only thing at IoA I haven't done because of that silly rule. Maybe I should smuggle a child on with me one day...
I agree, if JP adds a new ride, it should focus on the animals more than the tangible thrills.
Saying an area in a theme park isn't supposed to be a theme park is ludicrous.
What i mean is it shoudln't be something like a rollar coaste rit would just ruin the theming in an excellently themed section. If anything i would want JP to stay the same maybe just make trikes year round.
Yep wouldn't fit plus its kind of pointless at the moment it would just be RA on land.
There's plenty of room behind Thunder Falls. And who says the jeep tour has to be just like JPRA? I would love a peaceful tour amidst the herbivores.

Yes, bring the Trikes back, but one new indoor ride would be absolutely great, e.g. the raptor encounter attraction that I think BriMan first suggested. Also, I think that if the Trike tour was altered to keep one Trike and use the basic mechanics (or simply just some of the pieces) to make it into a three-stop tour with a relatively larger viewing area (capacity, capacity...), it could be received quite well.
It needed some updating/tweaking to differentiate it, but I think it could definitely be a great addition. Add some dinos not seen on the river (trike, pachy, etc) and then only have the raptors be the attacking animals, or maybe the Spionsaur.
--- Update ---
That would be cool. Have a trike, a pachy, and a raptor maybe? That would be sweet.
Yes but the ride shows the raptor cage but i like the idea of differnet herbivores like you said Triceratops,Pachycehplasaurus, and a baby Mamenchisaur would be awesome and thy could be tere for different vetinary reasons.

Just to name a few...
Executed correctly, a roller coaster can, in fact, enhance the theming of an area rather than take away from it. And undoubtedly Universal has the ability to create such coasters. And I think for the area behind Thunder Falls should be home to a heavily themed, ground hugging, coasters with segments both inside and out.
But also, a change to Trike encounter would be great. I would say Parasaurolophus, Gallimimus, Iguanodon, a really young Sauropod, or any other relatively recognizable herbivore.
So I was in line for JPRA on Saturday and decided to look at the diorama of the island at the entrance to the queue and it is a perfect representation of everything that was planned for JPRA. It has the Jeep tours and the Helicopter simulator on it.
