JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM Viral Site Offers A New Look At Claire Dearing & The Dinosaur Protection Group
Following that awesome new trailer, Universal has also launched a new viral site for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, revealing what Claire's been up to since the events of the last film. Come check it out!
The initial teaser trailer for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingom revealed that Owen (Chris Pratt) and Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) had split up since the events of the last movie, but the details behind their breakup remained murky at best. However, it looks like we may have uncovered at least part of why the dynamic duo didn't work out.
Following the disaster in 2015, Claire started the Dinosaur Protection Group, which seeks to protect the inhabitants of Isla Nublar - something that may have created some tension with good ol' Owen Grady, especially after those inhabitants came very close to killing both of them just three years ago.
Check out the new photos below to learn a little more about what Claire's been up to since 2015 and to meet some of the new cast members.

Bryce Dallas Howard returns as Claire Dearing and it looks like a lot has changed since we last saw her as she's now running the Dinosaur Protection Group, an agency committed to protecting the dinosaurs of Isla Nublar.
Daniella Pineda is Zia Rodriguez, the DPG's paleo-veterinarian.
"Zia Rodriguez trained in pre-veterinary medicine at Berkeley before the park incident put on hold her dream of accepting an internship at Jurassic World. Now Zia is one of DPG’s strongest advocates and our resident expert on dinosaur biology. Once the DPG fulfills its goal, she wishes to achieve her dream of mending our giant neighbors."
Justice Smith is Franklin Webb, the DPG's systems analyst.
"Having previously worked at Jurassic World as an IT technician, Franklin Webb now operates the DPG’s social media and online marketing campaigns. As his surname comically suggests, Franklin is an expert on all things to do with computers and the internet. This makes him an important asset to the DPG’s reach around the globe."
As stated above, Claire Dearing founded the DPG shortly after the tragic events at Jurassic World in 2015.
"DPG founder and activist Claire Dearing has committed her life to the protection of dinosaurs after surviving the incident at the park in 2015. After spending her early career consulting in the fields of process management and project implementation services, Claire now heads a team of thirty volunteers at the DPG."
While Jurassic World ended on a happy note with Owen and Claire walking off into the sunset, it's hard to imagine there wasn't some major ramifications following the destruction at arguably the most expensive park ever built. Here's Claire's public testimonial following the disaster in 2015.
"The fallout after a disaster like the one at the park always brings about public outrage, political agendas, and way too many conspiracies to count. Laws are broken, morals are tested, people are lied to and mistakes have to be lived with. But what can we do? Speaking as someone who has decided to devote her life to this cause, I believe we humans must realize that, no matter our shortcomings, we should not further abuse the animals we gave life to. We owe them at least that."
Here's another classroom shot, this time with the spotlight on Zia. It's uncertain whether or not we'll actually see this scene in the movie or if it's only being used for marketing purposes.
One of five downloadable posters to help spread the word about the extinction-level threat the dinosaurs face on Isla Nublar. This one features a baby Triceratops.
These are all of the dinosaurs that have inhabited Isla Nublar since cloning began in 1986 and the ones in red are the dinos that have recently gone extinct. They are as follows: Styracosaurus, Mamenchisaurus, Euoplocephalus, Coelurus, Spinosaurus, Corythosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Segisaurus, Herrarasaurus, Deinonychus, and Lesothosaurus.
The most notable name of the bunch is the Spinosaurus, of Jurassic Park III fame, which means it's not looking good for that long-awaited rematch with the T-Rex.
This poster teases the impending volcanic eruption, which will be the extinction-level threat that brings Owen and Claire back to Isla Nublar.
While this is technically true, it should be noted that these new batch of 21st Century dinos were genetically engineered...
She's back and she's better than ever. Rexy is easily the most iconic character from the entire franchise and it's always wise to put her at the forefront of any promotional content. We also see a nasty new scar on her neck from her larger-than-life battle with the Indominus Rex three years ago.

Here's the first of three "leaked" photos from the InGen labs as we see some dinosaur eggs being artificially incubated.
The second "leaked" photo shows how dinosaur embryos were being stored in the lab.
Another photo of how the dinosaur eggs were being incubated. This photo should also look somewhat familiar as it would appear that the set being used might be the same where Dr. Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler, and Ian Malcolm first met a baby velociraptor.
The DPG is doing everything in their power to find a way to save the dinosaurs before all hell breaks loose on Isla Nublar.
Here's a mission statement of sorts as the DPG attempts to get some funding for their cause.
The DPG is planning a march on Captiol Hill, conveniently set this September, which is several months after the movie hits theaters. However, considering the movie is supposedly set several years after Jurassic World, it wouldn't be a shock if we get some mention of this before the movie hits.

A simulation from the Costa Rican Institute of Volcanology showcasing the imminent danger the dinosaurs face and how catastrophic a volcanic eruption could prove to be for all life on the island.
Access to Isla Nublar has apparently been shut down since the events of 2015, so the DPG has been relegated to using private offshore research vessels and satellite imgery to further their cause.

It’s been four years since theme park and luxury resort Jurassic World was destroyed by dinosaurs out of containment. Isla Nublar now sits abandoned by humans while the surviving dinosaurs fend for themselves in the jungles.
When the island’s dormant volcano begins roaring to life, Owen (Chris Pratt) and Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) mount a campaign to rescue the remaining dinosaurs from this extinction-level event. Owen is driven to find Blue, his lead raptor who’s still missing in the wild, and Claire has grown a respect for these creatures she now makes her mission. Arriving on the unstable island as lava begins raining down, their expedition uncovers a conspiracy that could return our entire planet to a perilous order not seen since prehistoric times.
With all of the wonder, adventure and thrills synonymous with one of the most popular and successful series in cinema history, this all-new motion-picture event sees the return of favorite characters and dinosaurs—along with new breeds more awe-inspiring and terrifying than ever before.
