AITA for taking my colleague on a work trip to a dangerous island?

I (30s M) work as a paleontologist. I do a lot of archeological digs, in particular with my colleague E (24F). In the past I’ve worked with a bioengineering company and have some contact with its founder J (60s-70s? M).

So I’m doing this dig in Montana and a couple of things happen really quickly. I get a visit from this guy who asks some questions about J and his company (mostly him telling me things that J and his company have been doing and then asking “why are they doing that?”). I answer those questions (mostly with “I don’t know, ask them”) and he leaves. Then E gets a call from some science lab in Costa Rica. Apparently there were some animal attacks there and the scientists want us to take a look at the remains of one of these animals. Right after this, J calls and says he wants E and I to visit this “biological preserve” his company has established on an island near Costa Rica. He also offered me enough money to fund several years’ worth of digs, so I agree, and E and I leave for this island.

When we get there it’s very apparent that there’s dinosaurs there. Living dinosaurs. Actual living dinosaurs. The island is designed as a theme park, but with live dinosaurs. I’ll spare you the exact details of how they managed to bring back dinosaurs, but long story short: they used ancient dinosaur DNA from blood inside insects that were preserved in amber, and any gaps in the genetic code were filled with DNA from reptiles, birds, or amphibians. The dinosaurs are also apparently bioengineered to be female so they can’t breed.

Anyway, J is like “okay so you and E need to tour the park and say it’s good so the investors aren’t scared.” J has also brought a mathematician and a lawyer for the investors. Both of them think the park is a stupid idea and that it will fail miserably. (They basically said that but nicer and in more words.) The park’s staff include the engineer, a PR manager, a game warden, a veterinarian, and some sort of scientist guy. J has apparently also invited HIS FUCKING GRANDCHILDREN because their parents are divorcing and I guess hanging out at a fucking dinosaur amusement park will maybe make them feel better. The grandchildren are T (idk like 10 or something?, M) and L (eight-ish, F).

So everyone (minus the staff) is doing the tour, and I end up finding an eggshell. Which in any other context isn’t a big deal, but because we’re on Dinosaur Island where all the dinos are incubated in a lab, this means that they’re breeding.

Then the power goes out, and all the systems are down, which means the dinosaurs can just roam around the island unchecked. We become aware of this fact when we are attacked by a T. rex. I’m mostly okay, and I end up finding T & L, and escaping with them into the jungle.

The kids and I make it back to the control building by rafting down a river, we’re almost killed by dinosaurs a couple times, the details aren’t important. Point is, we make it back, I turn the main generators on, and T reactivates the park’s systems. At some point the velociraptors got out of their enclosure and killed the engineer and the scientist guy. I meet up with E, she’s mostly fine, no major injuries or anything like that.

I end up figuring out that the frog DNA made some dinosaurs able to change from female to male in certain environments. This island was one of those certain environments and that’s how we got the dinos breeding. The computer system that tallied up the animals was designed to make sure no animals had disappeared or died, so only counted the number of animals they were supposed to have on the island, failing to include organically conceived dinosaurs.

E, the game warden, the lawyer, and I find the wild raptor nests and we come to the conclusion that the velociraptors are trying to migrate off the island. Before we can really do anything about this, we’re evacuated from the island by the Costa Rican Air Force. I think they ended up doing something to kill off the dinosaurs or destroy the island but I’m not sure. Afterwards we’re staying at a hotel because there’s some sort of international something going on and we can’t return to the US yet. Some American doctor who’s working in Costa Rica visits me and says “hey so there’s this pack of animals that are migrating through the jungle, just fyi.” I go “huh okay I don’t want to unpack that right now though. goodbye.”

E and I return to the US sometime later and resume the archeological dig like nothing happened. I should have just said no, I recognize that now. I at least shouldn’t have brought E with me. From what I can tell she almost got attacked by velociraptors. I know she wanted to go, but I did say yes on her behalf. I didn’t know that the island had actual fucking dinosaurs on it, but still, I feel bad that she had to go through all that. Idk. So, AITA for taking my coworker on a work trip with me to an island that turned out to have literal dinosaurs on it?

week in costa rica

highlights from a not-so-solo solo trip - the warmth of intercultura, incredible sola eats, ziplining through the jungle, coffee tour, a retired couple from arizona, a night out where $0 was spent, sloth spotting, conversing w ticos, a group of nine random people (from ages 21 to 75) on a weekend trip making sure no one was ever left behind

Cecilia and Antonio (and Sofi) dropped me off at the airport and once I got in the check in line I just started tearing up. I don’t know why Cecilia thanked me, not sure what I did other than fry some dumplings there at the end

I’ve always been bad at saying goodbye. I guess my attachment to people and places doesn’t change… and the idea of never seeing someone again hits me more than most people I guess. Because these people encapsulated an experience that you’ll never get back again, and you kinda have to trust that your crossing of paths was meant to be transient.

At the same time that i probably have a general attachment problem, it’s kind of a beautiful thing that everything and everyone i spend time with has such an impact on me that i have a hard time letting go

Bogarin Trail Night Tour - La Fortuna, Costa Rica

All the good animals come out at night, so a night tour is a must for wildlife spotting. We stuck close to town and visited the Bogarin Trail (rather than hiking out into the jungle.). This place is a small area in town where two brothers rehabilitated an area of rainforest to make a more accessible nature viewing area. They started it 35 years ago, and we had one of the brothers as our tour guide. He was quite intense, but had a lot of interesting stories.

Despite the rain, we managed to see some cool things on this tour. I’m sure we missed out on a lot, but what we really cared about were sloths and red eyed tree frogs. We saw both, so everyone was happy!

We also saw an owl, leaf cutter ants, a snake and two other types of frogs.

All of these photos were taken by our guide. He seemed almost offended by how far away the people on our tour held their phones from the animals. It felt respectful to me, but he really wanted us to get in there. So I have better photos now I guess!
