The film follows a team of scientists and adventurers who journey to a remote island called Isla Sorna, the “Site B” of Jurassic Park, where dinosaurs were bred and raised in secret before being transported to Isla Nublar for the original park. Led by Dr. Ian Malcolm (played by Jeff Goldblum), the team includes paleontologist Dr. Sarah Harding (played by Julianne Moore), engineer Eddie Carr (played by Richard Schiff), and documentarian Nick Van Owen (played by Vince Vaughn).
Their mission is to study the dinosaurs in their natural habitat and document their behavior. However, they soon discover that they are not alone on the island. A team of hunters led by big game hunter Roland Tembo (played by Pete Postlethwaite) has come to capture dinosaurs for a wealthy businessman, Peter Ludlow (played by Arliss Howard), who wants to create a new Jurassic Park in San Diego.
As the two groups clash and struggle to survive the dangers of the island, they encounter a variety of dinosaurs, including the fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex, cunning Velociraptors, and gentle Stegosauruses. Amidst the chaos, Dr. Malcolm and his team must find a way to escape the island and prevent the dinosaurs from being brought back to the mainland.
In the climax of the film, the dinosaurs are transported to the mainland aboard a cargo ship. However, they break free from their cages and wreak havoc on the ship, killing the crew and causing chaos in San Diego. The T. rex escapes into the city and goes on a rampage, leading to a thrilling showdown between the dinosaur and the authorities.
In the end, Dr. Malcolm and his team manage to tranquilize the T. rex and return it to Isla Sorna, where it belongs. The survivors reflect on the dangers of tampering with nature and the importance of respecting the balance of the ecosystem.
