Marine Reptile special food idea - JWE2 equivalent to JWE1's Paleobotany system

I did bring this up already in a comment of another thread here, but I feel like going into a bit more detail.

What I mentioned there was "lagoon paleo foods" like small ammonites and Mesozoic era fish and stuff like that being something as part of an equivalent to JWE1's Paleobotany system by how you research the required things first, grow the plants, and set them to feed herbivores and boost their ratings at bit. So, I thought of something similar for JWE2, but with the Marine Reptiles instead.

Besides giving the lagoons more visual cosmetics which I do think is personally interesting, I also see them as just mere food sources as I don't think they would be suited to be like the in-game marine reptiles. At least, the small sized animals which I'm thinking of. Bigger ones like the largest ammonites for example, not sure about that.

Given that Amonites ( or its next alive relative" the Nautilus") , Squids, Sturgeon and Sharks were the main pray of many Marine reptiles of the Messozoic, it would be cool to have them as " foodsource2 and "Decoration" swimming in our lagoons ( like the other small fish right now) , after the were set free from the fishfeeder. Some Freshwaterfish should swimm in our shallow water of the enclosures for the same reasons. I ´d really like to see Pterosaurs and Spinosauroids or coelophysis catch fish out of a lake or river instaead only from the fishfeeder, this would be the equivalent to our goatfeeder/Meatfeeder for Dinosaurs!

At least some of the Marine reptiles should jumpf out of the water like Whales to get rid of skin parasites ... like Krono and Mosa do to catch the Sharkbait.
Fast moving Marine reptiles like the Ichthyiosaurs most likely breathed in while they made an flat shallow jump like modern Dolphines do while swimming with high speed !
Last but not Least it would be very cool if the "Sharkfeeder" could be used with tuna or salmon hanging lower to the watersuface so that Tylosaurs, Liopleurodon etc. could eat from it too, just for show !

Free roaming fish would be awesome! Also adds a bit of natural realism to the parks.

Funny thing,... before the last patch i had a lot of free roaming "flying ghostfish " in my Parks 😉 ! But sadly they were not under water in our Shallow waters of the enclosures.
