Q1

Why does Jason Drake want to kill Dinocroc and Supergator?

Drake runs a covert research project on the creatures for Drake Industries. When they escape and start killing people, he knows officials will shut down his operation. He desperately wants them dead before authorities discover his illegal experiments. If the creatures are eliminated, he can claim the containment breach was contained and avoid accountability for the project.

Q2

Why does the mercenary assault fail?

Drake sends an elite mercenary team to eliminate the creatures, but Dinocroc proves far too powerful. The creature emerges in a fury and wipes out the entire team.

  • dinocroc
  • failure
  • attack

Q3

How does Bob Logan the Cajun become involved in the hunt?

After conventional military force fails, Drake recruits Bob Logan, a Fish and Game hunter known locally as "the Cajun."
