Considering the scenarios in “Jurassic Park,” could human societies survive in a world where dinosaurs were extant? It seems unlikely to me.

A thing to consider: would dinosaurs and humans live in the same places? I don’t think so. And I would assume both would rather not come across each other. If we are talking modern, technology would be helpful in keeping big, dangerous carnivores and giant, destructive herbivore away.

The earth is a big place, and there’s plenty of room for humans and dinosaurs to have existed without getting in each other’s way, especially when there were far fewer humans on earth. It’s not like there was ever a T-rex per every square mile of earth’s land mass or anything…
