Isla Nublar

Isla Nublar is a remote island 120 miles (190 km) west of Costa Rica, 87 miles east of the Muertes Archipelago. The island has a surface of 344 square kilometers (bigger than what most people believed) with mountain ridges which creates varied ecological niches.

The island was intended to be the site of Jurassic Park, a tourist attraction featuring living biological dinosaurs cloned and pterosaurs from prehistoric DNA. The park was closed and abandoned before it could open due to multiple containment breaches in 1993, but was later reclaimed and successfully served as the site of a new tourist park, Jurassic World, which opened to the public in 2004. After over ten years of successful operation, another containment breach by the Indominus rex in 2015, resulted in the destruction of the park and the abandonment of its dinosaurs and pterosaurs. Yet despite being abandoned by people, the dinosaurs and pterosaurs are flourishing due to abundant food sources and available nesting areas on the island.

After the accident, in contrary to popular belief, there actually isn't any volcanic activity in Isla Nublar, and the myth of a volcano in Island was probably made by a Yellowstone Volcano expert, who misidentified the underground activity as volcanic activity, but it was actually an underground colony of Nublar cave bats hunting for various insects and other small animals.
