DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN JURASSIC PARK THEY BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS.

A/n: Ok this is a one shot ok I was doing this because the idea popped into my head. Its retarded and its stupid but it just showed up. I was at work when it came up. So here you go folks another WTF idea.

Summary: Alan Grant famous paleontologist and dinosaur expert was the best in the field. That was five years ago and then all that changed when a crate somehow fell off a passing truck onto the dig site. Now five years later Grant has turned from paleontologist to animal wrangler? Oh boy what has the world come to.

MONTANA 5 YEARS LATER

"Rosco! Rosco! Where the hell are you, you over grown lug!" Professor Alan Grant said as he pulled on the rope to the latest animal he has with him.

Behind him was a fully grown steer one that he had acquired from a nearby rancher. This rancher has several hundred acres of land that he had purchased near Grant's own reserve. Ever since five years ago when he acquired his 'Animals' he needed a place for them to wonder around freely. When this chunk of land was up for sale he bought it immediately with whatever money he had left.

And it was well worth it.

"ROSCO!" Alan called whistling for the animal he had been calling.

The steer behind him bayed in fear as the wind shifted. Alan knew that Rosco was nearby. He quickly released the steer and slapped it on the behind. He watched as the animal moved down the hillside. It looked left then right but still uneasy as it surveyed the grounds it was on. The wind shifted again till nothing allowing the animal to feel a bit calmer.

It was a mistake.

Suddenly from out of nowhere the ground began to shake as something large approached. The steer bellowed in alarm as it tried to run. Out of the nearby trees a very large form raced out towards the steer. Nine tones of muscle and teeth came crashing through while the poor animal tried to run as fast as it could.

Grant watched from his trailer as the steer ran towards him hoping for him to save it.

He only closed the hatch to the trailer just as the large animal bit down on the steer. Hoisted it up with it's large head and shook it with all its might. The animal screamed till one bite and it was nearly torn in half. The back side quickly slipped down the animal's throat followed by the front. The head had its horns torn off and left on the ground while the head itself was eaten.

Alan smiled as the animal finished eating its meal. Seeing the man it approached. Alan showed no fear as it came close and knelt down towards him. Smiling Alan patted the animal on the muzzle.

"How's my big lug doing eh?" he said in jest and wrapped his arms around the large muzzle. A deep rumble was his answer as the bloody snout nuzzled gently into Alan.

Patting him on the snout Alan pointed to the trees. The animal knew the signal Go home. Was the hidden signal. Lifting his head up Rosco gave a bellow before stomping his way back to the trees. Alan smiled as he patted the animal's leg affectionately. Every since he imprinted on the animal five years ago at his dig site in the badlands. Never would he imagine himself to be the proud owner of a massive nine ton Tyrannosaurus Rex.

FLASHBACK FIVE YEARS AGO

Alan watched as the hatchling pushed away the shell and he saw for the first time the large bird feet. It pushed at the eggshell that imprisoned it as he moved them away from it. However when he saw the head it was then that Alan realized that this was no bird.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" he bellowed.

The hatchling that came from the egg squealed in fear as it was finally free of its egg. It kicked its legs as its tiny arms fought to gain balance. Alan quickly saw himself fascinated by the sight that greeted him.

There right in front of him was a baby dinosaur!

A God Forsaken Dinosaur hatched right on his bed!

Man he needs to stop drinking or smoking what ever it is that volunteers cooked up!.

"Alan is everthing alright?" Ellie Sattler said when she entered the trailer only to come face to face with a baffled Alan and a... "Alan is that a...?" she did not finish the words as the dinosaur made a squealing noise.

Alan was snapped out of his reprieve and grabbed a towel to dry the baby off. He quickly picked it up and held it close. The dinosaur hatchling quickly snuggled in close to his body as he guided it towards the kitchen.

"Alan?" Ellie said trying to catch up with him.

Alan quickly went into the refrigerator to see what he can find for the baby dinosaur. As he dug through he found a piece of left over ham and steak that he had from their last BBQ.

The little dinosaur was slowly struggling to raise its head as Alan warmed up the meat. Being careful not to cook it he pulled it out of the microwave and set it on the table. Putting the baby dinosaur down he began to cut up the meat and offer it to the hatchling. The hatchling then took its first bites of the meat and began to choke. Alan quickly realizing what was happening gently massaged the throat of the animal. Soon it swallowed the meat and began to go for another one. This time it was slower in swallowing.

After about three large pieces it was sated as he picked it up again and moved it to his bed. When he neared he spotted another egg that was nearly done hatching and set down the plate of meat for the next hatchling.

END FLASHBACK

That was five years ago.

And now 'Rosco' as Alan named him was a rather large and healthy Tyrannosaurus Rex. The dinosaur in question was waiting at home for him. Alan smiled as he got back into the trailer and pulled out another animal this one a deer.

The doe was fighting his rope but Alan held on as he guided it out to the field.

"NICO! NICO WHERE ARE YOU!" he yelled and whistled.

He released the deer that bounded away. It did not get far before it was tackled to the side by another dinosaur. This one a lot smaller then Rosco being as it is a different species. But still the animal managed to tear the deer apart. He was soon followed by a third dinosaur this one another species. Also smaller then the last but more hesitant then the second.

"Spitz! Spitz!" Alan called to the third dinosaur.

The dinosaur in question turned to him two crests marked its bright colored head. Spitz neared him as he let loose a third animal this one a goat.

The goat ran but Spitz soon chased it down and attacked it. When he was done with his meal he and the dinosaur named Nico came right at Alan. Both of which nuzzled him under each arm. Smiling Alan patted each of them down. Nico was identified as a large Velociraptor. Spitz was a Dilophosaurus and a very shy one. But he seems to like Alan all the same. After all Alan did raise them all by hand. The dinosaurs seemed to take to him like a father figure.

He never contained them since they are rather large animals. Instead he took courses in training them like one would do a dog or a whale. How this man turned from a well known paleontologist to a dinosaur wrangler was something no one had imagined. But still his animals became famous world wide. Though these are just the carnivores.

He could hear the fourth dinosaur he had in the distance. This one was the only herbivore and one both smaller carnivores love to play with. As soon as their meal was done they both rushed to the fourth dinosaur in Alan's menagerie. This one lumbered her way slowly to him.

"There you are Tank I was wondering where you went," Alan said as the dinosaur in question slowly made her way lazily up to him. She sniffed him and he wrapped his arms around her head. Patting the side of her neck she was more then happy to lumber off towards home. Out of all the dinosaurs he has Alan feeds Tank the least since she is a herbivore. This forest was perfect for her since all the ferns she can eat are here. He does not have to worry about bears and cougars either since the dinosaurs either chased them all off or ate them.

Getting into his truck he quickly drove off. Tank, Nico and Spitz not fall behind. The three dinosaurs followed Alan home. He was surprised when Tank could keep up with him but the Ankylosaur proved that she can move when she wants. And today she wanted to move that huge bulk of a body with him.

It was one of the things Alan enjoys with his dinosaurs building up that bond. For the carnivores he found out many things about them in the five years of raising them. He kept his notes and sent his papers to the universities. They in turn would send funding to help him with the animal's care as well as send volunteers to help him around his ranch. Now the ranch in question does not just house dinosaurs he also has herd animals as well to keep them fed. He had volunteers and hired workers help him in raising them and had learned a thing or two about it. Though he prefers to dig up his bones which he has a collection of in his back yard. Alan spends a good deal of time with his dinosaurs.

Speaking of which.

"Frankie get off of my chair you little shit!" he said to one of two flying dinosaurs he owns.

Frankie is the smallest of the group an Archaeopteryx. Only the size of a raven he is the only one that can come into Alan's lap...when he lets him. Frankie has bright colorful feathers which threw most people off when they think about dinosaurs. In fact most of his dinosaurs had colors. As soon as Alan chased off Frankie he spotted Rosco resting beside his house. Frankie made his presence known by climbing into the open mouth of the larger Tyrannosaur and began to pick at his teeth. It was a mutual relationship for both animals.

Alan smiled as locked his truck door and walked towards his largest dinosaur. It was the beginning of autumn and he could see the pinpricks of feathers starting to grow on Rosco. That was one thing he discovered about his dinosaurs. They had feathers during the winter and are bare during the summer. It was like certain species of birds which molt their feathers pertaining to the season. Alan was quick to bring his hand up and rub his fingers against some of the feather quills of the larger dinosaur. He remembered to look for the white ones because those are the ones ready to open. Rosco loves this as he leans in to allow Alan to get at the hard to reach ones. Frankie did the same as he too started preening the larger dinosaur.

Tank never had to worry about feathers or the cold. As Alan discovered the Ankylosaur had a thick layer of fat under her to keep her warm. She just did the same on Rosco's other side.

The two smaller dinosaurs Nico and Spitz also helped. Nico was also starting to grow his feathers in and Spitz helped in preening him. Spitz never had feathers so when winter comes the Dilophosaur mostly stayed indoors since the time period he came from was mostly warm. That left one last member of their house hold.

As if on cue a scream was heard from above him and a large shape swooped down. Ah there she is!

Sarah the pteranodon was the largest flyer he has on the ranch and the only one who normally leaves the grounds. However Alan soon discovered that she is mainly a fish eater and likes to eat fish. Though occasionally she will eat migratory birds such as the Canada goose. Sarah like Tank has a thick layer of fat under her to keep her warm. When she landed on the ground Alan was quick to give her a rub down on her rather long beak. She seems to like that the most and leaning in she gently nipped his hand to show that she appreciates it.

In all the six dinosaurs that Alan has made him famous. One thing he really does not enjoy but it helps to fund his dig in the badlands. His animals enjoys going out into the desert with him which lets them get a change of scenery. So every summer he usually would ride Rosco or Tank out to his trailer in the badlands. Rosco seems to enjoy the riding which in turn tightens their bonds as a family.

All six seemed content to roam around Alan's home and he lets them. The people who usually come over to help him out come with the understanding that they are still and always will be wild animals.

Even though Alan Grant makes them look like puppies.

When he was done preening Rosco the T-Rex gave him a head butt which was gentle for the giant and a low content rumble. Alan snuffed a laugh as he patted the dinosaur down. Rosco can be a clown sometimes.

Nico was another one to deal with. The Velociraptor is hyper so keeping him content was hard. But at the end of the day luckily he is worn out and will be a total couch potato in the house.

Which brings up another thing.

Alan's home is specially designed for the dinosaurs seeing as keeping them content and happy helps to keep him alive. On the lower levels are where the dinosaurs sleep which is more like a barn. From what he discovered they are generally very clean individuals so sometimes before bed he can see either one or the others grooming each other. Tank is a hard dinosaur to clean but she is just content when they lick her sides. The only ones who actually sleep with Alan is of course Frankie. Sarah has her perch just above Rosco's head so the pteranodon can be near the T-Rex. She also occasionally pecks at the flecks of meat in his mouth. The larger carnivore does not mind. In fact it still baffles Alan how they can get along so well most of the time.

Nico and Spitz love the beds which were next to the fire place he had built. One of his students was also studying to be an architect so he helped Alan design the house. When Alan looks at his dinosaurs he spotted the bright colors of Frankie as he sat on his perch preening his feathers. It seems like every autumn that he goes through this phase and every spring has to deal with the molting.

In the last five years he was stunned to see that he can make discoveries with live dinosaurs more so then digging up bones. But that does not stop him from digging up bones in the first place. As he went into the kitchen to make his own meal it was Frankie who always took to the television in the corner. He found out fast how smart his dinosaurs can be especially Nico and Frankie.

Nico had discovered how to open doors from an early age. Being a problem solver he managed to sneak into the food storage bin one night and gotten himself stuck. When Alan found him the next day he was nearly frozen to death because of it. That took a good bit of warming up and a trip to the vet to get the raptor to come around. When Nico did come around he learned the hard way not to go in the freezer. Now when he opens doors he makes sure that it is safe.

Spitz Alan discovered is quite venomous early on. It was during their vaccinations with the vets that Alan was bitten and had to be taken to the hospital because of it. The bite had a paralyzing property which left poor Alan in bed for nearly a few weeks. Luckily for him some of the townsfolk came by to feed the animals.

Even though the animals nearly ate them.

Another thing he discovered about Spitz is that he can shoot globs of that same venom at people.

Just like a spitting cobra.

And it also has the same blinding agents as a cobra.

He found out about that the hard way. Alan had to go to town to get some supplies when someone tried to break into his house. The other dinosaurs were out in the field save for Frankie and Spitz. Nico was out with Rosco while Sarah and Tank were out sunning themselves in the fields.

It was in the middle of winter when it happened. So Spitz and Frankie remained in doors till spring thaw. Meaning they watched the house till Alan gets back.

Well when he did get back he had heard the screaming before he saw the victim. Rushing into the house he was met by a man screaming in agony. While Spitz was trying to get to him from his area down stairs. Of course in bear country Alan came prepared with a gun just in case. So he stocked up on his rifle and loaded his bullets before going out to meet his foe.

What he discovered was the man's face had swollen up and he had difficulty breathing. Not only that but the black blob on his face was a sure sign that it was Spitz who did the damage. Frankie had hid himself in the ceiling beams. Shaking his head Alan had called the sheriffs department to come deal with the intruder.

The state sheriff was startled when he saw Spitz but Alan assured him that the dinosaur was only defending himself. Well what he did not know was that the man was an escaped convict. It would have been less paperwork on the Sheriff's part if the man died.

He nearly did had Alan not have the anti-venom specially made. The man made a recovery but he was serving the rest of his time in prison on good behavior. Spitz has been given her favorite treat as a reward.

It was tough raising six dinosaurs of various species. All of them with different needs and all of them with different personalities. It left Alan with out any time for himself and also to add to the dig he left behind the life he once knew.

But he would not have it any other way.

What paleontologist not want to live his dream? Many of them would only wet themselves just to get the chance to study dinosaurs live in person. And here was Alan Grant the top of his field with six species of prehistoric animals.

He could not have been more happy.

The sound of sizzling beef could be heard as he poured the contents of his chopping board into the pot. He stirred it to make sure it was evenly put before covering the pot to let it cook. If he did not then Frankie would get into the pot again and burn himself like he did before. He had gotten a gas stove just to help him cook his food faster.

But it was not dinosaur proof.

Frankie was always curious and would like to try new things. Alan compared him to a prehistoric raven always getting on everyone's nerves. In fact Frankie was just small enough to actually get into places none of the others could. As he checked his other ingredients to make sure they are fine. He could hear the television suddenly turn on and shook his head.

Nico the raptor had always been fascinated by the television. It had taken the raptor a while to discover that the television is not live. So when he figured it out he would spend a good deal of time flipping channels. The remote in his claws was proof of that. When he discovered how to use it all he had to do was flip through the channels and find what he wants.

Tonight was some sort of movie channel.

Alan had to smile as both Nico and Spitz curled up in front of the television. Both dinosaurs enjoyed sitting on their own designated spots to watch the movie. It was of course a B-Rated monster movie. Alan had to smile as he finished cooking his dinner. Sitting in front of the television he watched with his animals. Since they already ate he did not have to worry about wondering snouts...well except for Frankie who was always curious.

When he finished and washed the dishes he gotten up to take a much needed shower. When he came out fresh and clean he made sure the door to the outside was closed before heading off to bed. Stripping his clothes to something he can sleep with he stared at himself in the mirror. His bedroom was one of the few places the dinosaurs would ask permission first before entering. That part they learned early on in their lives.

When he looked at himself. He was surprised by how much physical work he had done to maintain these animals. The fat that he normally would have when digging bones is long gone replaced by hard muscle. He surprised even himself by how much weight he lost and gained back in muscle. He did not notice at first till he went into town earlier that day to see what old man Mathews had to give him.

EARLIER THAT DAY

Alan pulled up to the shop marked 'Lee's Frontier Supply' the rundown shop was just a convenience store for those who live on the outskirts of town. Alan often frequents there for his grocery shopping. When he arrived there he never noticed at first the many stares he had gotten until he entered the store.

Of course the place was crowded as usual when Alan gathered the ingredients needed for both himself and food for his animals. The food usually is treats for the carnivores and fish for the pteranodon. As for Frankie he had to go to the pet store for crickets and locusts. Since Frankie is an insect eater that is all he would eat and the occasional piece of meat. Alan spends a lot of money just keeping these guys well fed. Not only them but the animals he herds to.

Since taking the dinosaurs in when they hatched. Alan has also taken to raising the animals that are needed to feed them. Animals such as cows, sheep, pig and goats are needed to feed the carnivores. The chickens he never really needed since Frankie does most of the bug eating. But he bought some anyways for the eggs that his animals liked. All that work for one man was not enough. So he had hired a few helpers and he trained his dinosaurs to help in keeping the animal herds in line.

The sheep for example fell to Nico and Spitz. Both smaller dinosaurs were perfect for herding the sheep into their pens at night. Alan had trained them like sheep dogs herding the sheep and the goats. He would let them eat the sick ones but only on occasion. This helps in their training for cooperation. Nico of course learned faster then Spitz. But then again Alan knew that she was intelligent.

Just not that intelligent.

Nico would be the one to coordinate the herding with Spitz to help. The Dilophosaur learned to follow Nico's lead and they worked great at a team. Sometimes Sarah would join in when she is not fishing somewhere at the nearby lake. The pteranodon would swoop down and do strafing runs with the other two dinosaurs. Two of Alan's workers would also work alongside them with their dogs. Nico and Spitz learned how to herd the live stock better with the dogs. That is when they are not trying to eat them. Watching how they take commands with a whistle. Alan had also learned this so he used the same methods when training his dinosaurs.

Today Alan needed feed for his livestock since winter is coming and there would be no grass for his herds. He also purchased burlap bags for spring when he would sheer his sheep for their wool. He made quite a business with it at the local wool factory. In fact he had several of their people come up to help him sheer the sheep.

Speaking of livestock.

Alan looked down at the pig feed in his flat cart the pigs needed to be fed as well as the chickens. Frankie was in charge of protecting the chickens from foxes and wolves. The little Archeopteryx has proven himself to be efficient in that. Alan has trained his animals well...

But it seems that he needs to learn how to train people not to stare.

He kept having the feeling that he was being watched. He kept looking over his shoulder but found that no one was watching him...or so he thinks.

"Ah the usual Dr. Grant?" asked old man Mathews the owner of Lee's Frontier Supply.

"Yeah winter is coming so it is time to stock up," Alan replied.

"I see you are doing more then stocking feed for your live stock doctor," Mathews joked.

"What are you talking about?" Alan asked.

"Have you looked at yourself in the mirror lately Dr. why I bet my wife will get wet over you," Mathews joked.

"Ah come on Mat stop pulling my leg I am not a super model you know. I am a man near his middle ages I am no strapping buck," Alan joked back.

"Dr. I hate to bust your bubble but ever since you started taking care of dem Dinosaurs of yours. You have lost quite a bit of weight and gained it all back in a nice six pack," with that Mathews patted Alan's stomach to show his meaning.

"The ladies here have taken a liking to ya and those additional scars also helps to turn them on. Speaking of which how is that lady friend of yours Dr. Sattler doing? I thought you two had a thing for each other?" Mathews asked.

"Ellie and I are not in a relationship and never was. We are childhood friends I think of her as more of my sister then a girlfriend and besides she is going out with Mark," Alan replied.

"Mark? The museum curator? Damn what is this world coming to?" Mathews said as he and Alan finished gossiping and Alan made his purchase.

End FLAHSBACK

That was earlier in the day when Alan went to town. And now that he looked at himself in the mirror. He can clearly see what Mathews has meant when he gained a six pack.

The constant running and care given to his dinosaurs had Alan's work cut out for him. Not only that but there are fences to be fixed, animals that need care and a house to maintain. It was hard work and Alan never knew that all that work would be good for him. Taking a good look at himself he felt along his now rock hard stomach and well muscled arms.

"Shit Mathews is right?" Alan said out loud.

Suddenly there was a shrill coming from the living room and Alan quickly put a shirt on and rushed out.

Spitz was in full defense mode with his bright frill open. Nico hissed and shrieked a warning.

"What the fuck?" Alan said as he neared the door. There was a knock which he looked through the window.

It was the sheriff.

Opening the door Alan greeted the man, "What can I do for you officer?" Alan asked.

"Sorry to disturb you Doc but there has been an incident that requires your immediate attention." The officer said.

"OH shit what did they do?" Alan said looking at his animals.

"They did not do anything...in fact we need their help," the officer replied.

"What do you mean?" Alan replied.

"A child was kidnapped by a known pedifile and we need your dinos to help find him." the sheriff said.

Alan sighed, "Alright why don't you come inside. The dinosaurs won't do anything if I gave you permission to enter and we can discuss it more," Alan said.

Thank you

A/n: Ok I did have this chapter planned out and half way written yesterday before I posted the prologue. So before any of you wondered how this was possible I was watched Jurassic world again. Then I watched several documentaries on animal behaviorists and how they deal with different animals. Then I watched a movie called Prehisteria which for those of you younger then me. It was a movie back in the ninties about pygmy dinosaurs. It was a family movie so it was kind of cute. So I hope you do enjoy this chapter I have another JP fic I had written a while ago I am posting for your entertainment so stay tuned for that one as well. Other then that updates will be slow seeing as I have a lot going on right now. So hope you enjoy and remember leave a review but no cannon mongers, bashings and flames please thanks!
