Mammoths wouldn't be too much of a stretch for CC to add if they wanted as that's like "Ice Age Animal #1". And while it seems too unlikely as of now, a ground sloth would be cool and surprising to see, admittedly!
New Official Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous News!

And more, I am greedy lol
For those who don't know yet, a journalist from ew.com has gotten a chance to speak with one of Camp Cretaceous' producers, Scott Kreamer, who explains some details of Season Four in it.

This "island" the kids are now going to end up is no longer Isla Nublar, nor is is even Isla Sorna at all, but somewhere else entirely with robots. And it's all thanks to the freed Mosasaurus who is responsible for the kids' new location of mystery. This was done to add new direction where the audience would no longer be "ahead of them" as Kreamer puts it. This place will also include more velociraptors the campers will have to face, as shown in an official Netflix image in the article.
Some things shown in the trailer, like the environments, were originated right out of the writers' room. The Saber-toothed tiger was something Kreamer says he "might take credit for". Its inclusion was to expand on the idea that it's not just dinosaurs (including the non-dino reptiles) people in this universe are cloning, nor is it just InGen or BioSyn doing it. In fact, Mantah Corp was included to show just that, in that it's not just the two known companies prior, as he confirmed in an interview video with The Jurassic Park Podcast.
Season Four will tie into Jurassic World: Dominion in some way as Kreamer confirms. It's only a matter of knowing just how exactly. And interestingly enough, he also says while saying Toro and the Scorpius rex were the big bad dino antagonists in previous seasons, the Spinosaurus (albeit placed in an unusual habitat to make us think, as they intended) is not actually one of them.
Also, two things I want to point out. The Kentrosaurus image in the novel covers looks just like the JWE style Kentros, but in the show, it's different and more similar to the Mattel toy. I noticed in the book covers, the dinos don't 100% look like their appearance in the show and that the inaccurate designs are merely just design style choices for the book covers only, rather than showing something that looks exactly like they do on-screen. I remember the first novel had JPIII style Pteranodons and loads who took notice were hyping it up, including Klayton, in wondering or hoping they would appear, only to end up being absolutely nothing at all. There were Pteranodons for that scene for the novel and on-screen, just not in that visual style for the latter. (FYI, the novels aren't pictured in anyway on the story pages) I also thought there were two rexes because the rex on the cover looked different from the one in the trailer, but I believe now it's just one, and that I may have had a fare share of misinterpreting myself.
Secondly, not too long ago, a news publication by Captivz, who sell Camp Cretaceous and other Jurassic World merchandise, made a news report about Season Four real early, saying it's for Dec. 10 instead, as well as the kids being on Isla Sorna, in their News room. However, shortly after that, in just one or two short days later after people took notice, that news posting was removed entirely, possibly because it was a "breach" by someone within the team. And it's contrary now, knowing what the season is truly about in a basic premise. I was aware of this since day one of its existence, but I didn't want to share it, for both not knowing what it is and saving it until after a trailer releases, so Season Four's revealing content can stay as a surprise as officially intended. Breaches like this can happen to anyone, for leaking real info or to purposefully mess with people.
'Camp Cretaceous' season 4 trailer reveals new island in the 'Jurassic' canon
'Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous' showrunner Scott Kreamer says the island in the first season 4 trailer is new to the canon.

It's called an opinion, as I have stated. And unlike you, I'm not not aggreessive about mine.
Can't wait.
Boy, the success for Camp Cretaceous, imagine what other TV series Universal could come up with...
If we have tundra, there's a fair chance we may get new Cenozoic species, as well, not just the Smilodon.
And what do y'all think about e750 returning? I don't think that's out of the question, because I rewatched Season 3, and the scene that shows the 2 Scorpios, I only saw 1 corpse. I have a theory that only 1 died, and the other escaped somewhere, whether it got on the yacht or maybe Mantah Corp came back and took it to their island. What do y'all think?

I think that it won't be on the yacht at least. A highly unstable murder machine with breathing problems? I think that would be noticeable in the fairly confined space of a single boat.
Mantah Corp might take it, but I don't know if they have any interest in hybrids (as in the animals that go beyond the 'normal' amount of hybridization).
That being said, we don't know about their end goal yet. And judging by their machines, they might be military. Indorator was made for military purposes. So yeah, there might be a chance hybrids interest them.
Maybe, but if I'm not mistaken,didn't Dr. Wu and that lab assistant, Eddie, secretly worked for Mantah Core?
That could be why the I-raptor was designed in the 1st place
When has this been mentioned? Sorty, it's been a bit since I watched the movies and the series.
If so, that'd make sense.
Maybe I'm remembering wrong. Oh well: 3 weeks until it releases, so we'll see, then
If the Scorpius Rex is returning for real, one personal theory I have that I favor is there may be a third individual, one that does stow away on the boat, simply to expand on the fact that they can reproduce asexually. The same way as to how a second one came about when Dr. Wu only made one.
I also saw that the second is white iirc, just like Jurassic World Alive design, could this all be connected?
The 2nd Scorpios? No, I think it was black/dark gray or dark brown.
But it might be. Who knows where this'll all lead. (On-off subject: I hope JWE 2 eventually features Camp Cretaceous content. I believe that it will, but once the series ends)
I still a Scorpius would make too much noise on the boat to not be noticed. However, you make a point.
Consider: A Scorpius egg. And even a juvenile one should be able to cause considerable damage, with its venom and all.
And the lack of size makes it dangerous too; easy for it get get around or hide in small spaces. And imagine Bumpy trying to hit it. She'd likely accidently damage the yacht instead of hitting a small target. Panicking Ankylosaurus usually don't have any regards for boat safety.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This post contains only information and spoilers about Season Four's FIRST SIX EPISODES!!! Content of the remaining five episodes will not be posted here until after I've seen the rest.
Tonight, PST, my mother and I have watched the first six episodes of Season Four, and there is a lot to talk about. Butt here is something I do want to correct for myself. At first I thought there was only 1 T.Rex, but as it turns out, I was dead wrong. There are more, after all.
The kids have managed to escape Isla Nublar, but now face new threats and mysteries, all thanks to the Mosasaurus, as confirmed earlier by Colin Trevorrow. The dinosaur that stowed away on the boat is also confirmed. A single Compsognathus. At first, I thought it was going to be something a bit larger and a bit more dangerous (like a small Scorpius as I previously theorized, but not expected).
The Mosasaurus's attack has stranded the kids on an uncharted island that turns out to be a Mantah Corp research facility. One that contains several enclosed biomes: Desert, Forest, and Snow. I'm still not quite sure myself if the jungle one where the control compound and raptor pair are located either is a fourth though. The dinos, including the Saber-tooth, were either created by Mantah Corp themselves, or even brought in from Isla Sorna. The ones at least confirmed to be from the latter are a pair of T.Rexes, who are a family. They are mother and daughter; Big Eatie and Little Eatie respectively. Other dinos in there are a pair of Velociraptors, and a single Kentrosaurus named Pierce by a dinosaur behavior specialist, Dr. Mae Turner, whom Darius recognized by her books.
Dr. Turner was hired by Mantah Corp without knowing much about them. Believing they were interested in how the dinos behaved, Mantah Corp's true intentions are to see how the dinos fight, forced in ways of despicable animal cruelty, forcing Big and Little Eatie to hurt each other (with Big Eatie tending to her injuries after they come back to their senses), and forcing Big Eatie and Pierce to fight to the death.
If that wasn't enough, the kids are facing their own personal problems. While the kids, except at least Darius, have nightmares, Yaz is suffering from PTSD which gives her the worst nightmares when she sleeps. (PS, I was aware of a leaked Scoprius rex image that sprouted on Twitter a while back, but I kept silent just to keep myself surprised. And if you're wondering where it was, it was just part of Yaz's PTSD nightmare, along with a Ceratosaurus, Carnotaurus, and an Indominus rex. Neither said dinosaur being a further part of the season outside her dreams, or at least in the episodes that I've watched so far, so I could be wrong in some way.). But, at the same time, they are having some more good situations as well. Brooklyn and Kenji are slowly but surly beginning a "BF and GF" relationship, though not quite there yet, as Kenji is just starting to have crushes first. Ben and Yaz may very well be in something similar as well. Maybe.
The facility is monitored by a lone Mantah Corp fellow named Kash, the one who blackmailed Sammy and her family in the first place. By his side, are the facility's robot dogs called BRADs, care takers and guard dogs of the place whom the kids and their newest ally, Turner, try to avoid and run from. The kids and Turner's not only plan is to get out of the facility island, but to protect the dinos from Mantah Corp's cruelty, but they may not be alone, because just before getting caught by Kash, Darius has managed to make contact with his brother, who is surprised to hear from him alive, and who hasn't been in the show since the first episode of Season One: Brandon Bowman.
Tomorrow night, me and my mom will continue to watch the rest of the remaining five episodes and I will post about them here tomorrow night.

I watched it with my kid yesterday and... it didn't keep my kid's attention at all, and I thought it was terrible. This didn't feel like Jurassic World anymore - almost terminator style robots, lasers, holodecks, controlling dinosaurs with drones, using tablets to talk to them? I recognize they needed to switch things up, but I don't think this worked.
I mean, what's even the point of Dominion if one guy can program a bunch of drones to control dinosaurs easily, and how on earth does the franchise's already nonsensical military dinosaurs plot make sense if there's nearly indestructible tactical robots with high grade weaponry? Why are they messing with dinosaurs when they have superior being mass produced by one dude?
Also, I think portraying the behaviour of a character like Kash isn't very sensitive children who live in abusive homes. Normally I'm all "kids can handle more than you think" but there was something deeply disturbing about him that IMO didn't fit a show targeted at children. Like, he was a temper tantrum away from a bully in a Stephen King horror novel, and at a certain point they have Darius decide he's gotta stay with the abuser to protect the others. What kind of message is that?

Important Note: This post now contains information and spoilers of the last five episodes me and my mother have just finished watching tonight.
In these last episodes, Darius plays a long game while being held captive by Kash in order to reunite together with the others. He and the others uncover new darker secrets and more threats to face.
One such threat is the latest BRAD model: The BRAD-X. Giant theropod-like robots that are nearly indestructible, as oppose to the weaker dog-like BRADs (though the X models can run quadrupedally).
And one secret Mantah Corp is also doing that they find out is controlling the dinosaurs with chips to force them to do things out of their own will, as demonstrated on a baby Brachiosaurus the kids named Firecracker.
And Firecracker isn't the only other dino "asset" the facility has revealed in these last episodes. There is also a Stegosaurus, a Ceratosaurus (which was only in a dream in previous episodes of this season, so I was wrong about it only appearing there for Season Four), Pteranodons, the Spinosaurus (which was just brought into the desert to play some roles for the season), and even two individuals of a new hybrid dnosaur of spinosaurus and sinoceratops, both who were kept in the same area as Firecracker. The hybrids are brother and sister named by the kids Rebel and Angel respectively. They were created from Sinoceratops DNA samples that Sammy has collected in the first season. Whereas the three previously created dinosaur hybrids were predatory theropods with hyper aggression in their respective ways, Rebel and Angel are not such. Instead, they are playful and gentle quadrupedal herbivores, a first for on-screen dinosaur hybrids. These hybrids also generate exceptional amount of body heat which the kids presume that Mantah Corp themselves altered, in which they make home in the snow biome. The kids form a loving bond with the baby dinos, just as with Bumpy before, who hasn't forgotten about Ben as seen in one of the last episodes. Kenji and Brooklyn have now finally started a real BF and GF relationship as well. And Yaz is overcoming her PTSD.
On the topic of biomes, the jungle itself is a habitat biome are after all, it's just that the compound is just located in it. Not only that, there was even a fifth biome revealed to have another dinosaur species. A Swamp Biome. And this biome contains a dinosaur species that hasn't appeared in the flesh since the original Jurassic Park film in 1993, though it did appear as a hologram in Jurassic World, was heard in Fallen Kingdom, and as a drawing by Darius in Season 3: Dilophosaurus, newest assets that even Kash himself is afraid of. This reveal ends when they are brought into a trap, revealing that the boss of Kash, and the president of Mantah Corp is a man named Daniel. AKA, Kenji''s father!
As it turns out, the whole goal and agenda that Mantah Corp has, which in includes dinosaur battles and even dinosaur control, is for one and one thing only. Corporate greed for the sake of greed, with the intent on exploiting the dinosaurs for what they want. Yes they have advanced technology in comparison to Masrani and InGen, but it seems they don't stop there. Which I'm sure will be further elaborated in the next season, whenever that is coming, because as may know already, this adventure with the kids is far from over.

I have now finally seen S4. And I'm gonna say it: I like that they now more and more embrace the sci-fi-aspects of the franchise. I frequently see people complaining about it, but literally every single one of the new 'ridiculus' technological thing in there is more realistic than the whole Dino-DNA extraction premise. Not only is most of the technology plausible, but a lot of it is or could theoretically be reality.
The one tech thing I can see that's a bit iffy is
Now, to the important part for this thread, the animals:
Well, that's all I can think of that I want to say for now.
The one tech thing I can see that's a bit iffy is
large bipedal robots. Those still are a bit of an issue IRL and I'm not sure if any robot of that size can move that surely on two legs as the BRAD-X did. Behold, real bipedal robots:

But to be fair, the BRAD-X' movements lokked a lot more natural when it was on a fours.

Mostly returning ones, not many new ones, bit that's fine.
For the newcomers, that cat wasn't as overwhelming of a presence as I'd feared. I'm cool with it. I still think the mammals should stay few, but I've made my peace with it.
The new hybrids are precious and I'd like to see what they'd look like grown up. Also, that very specific cold adaption makes me think: What if there'll be a biome system similar to Planet Zoo in JWE2? I think that could be interesting.

I know right? I think the problem is people have gotten it stuck into their heads that the whole point of this franchise is people running from dinosaurs and not at all about the dangerous misuse of power.
