The narrative begins by slowly tying together a series of incidents involving strange animal attacks in Costa Rica and on Isla Nublar, the main setting for the story. After paleontologist Alan Grant and his paleobotanist graduate student Ellie Sattler are invited by billionaire John Hammond for a weekend visit to a "biological preserve" he has established on an island known as Isla Nublar. Initially, they are averse to do that. But, Grant and Sattler eventually agree to start the trip, since they can get 40 thousand a day just as consultants.
