It was just announced that Jurassic World is the 3rd biggest movie of all time. This action-packed flick had audiences on the edge of their seat as they enjoyed rampaging dinosaurs creating nothing but carnage.<\/p>\n
Jurassic World seems like it would be a great place to visit, once murderous dinosaurs are not running wild and it potentially could be\u00a0a good business idea that generates a lot of profit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Profit aside, ever wondered how much it would cost to actually run Jurassic World?\u00a0The good guys over at Fandango<\/a>\u00a0created a video highlighting the insane amount of money needed to\u00a0make this theme park a reality.<\/p>\n Isla Nublar was\u00a0the main island where the Jurassic World would be setup.Isla\u00a0Sorna was the island that would house the dinosaurs after they were born.<\/p>\n You can find these islands off the coast of Costa Ricaand\u00a0and based on the size (66 square miles), the estimated cost to purchase these islands is about\u00a0$10,000,000,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n Running a park that big would need a dedicated staff of scientists, animal caretakers, amusement park staff and much more. It essentially would take a small army to keep Jurassic World running.<\/p>\n Some of the yearly salary costs\u00a0would be:<\/p>\n Throw in everyone else who makes the park function and you are looking at a salary cost of about\u00a0$7.9 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n There would be no park without dinosaurs. This is a pretty hefty cost as it is not cheap to replicate life. To get a real world idea, the video highlights a real life genetic company,\u00a0 Bio Arts<\/a>, which allows people to clone a dog for around $150,000. If we are going off that figure, there would be 50 different dinosaurs in Jurassic World, so 50 x $150,000 =\u00a0$7.5 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n With all the costs mentioned, we have not even touched on how much would have to be spent to build the park.<\/p>\n It would take substantial amount of investment to get this world famous attraction up and running and to get an idea of the cost the video decided to look at the world biggest them parks as an example. Many of them cost around $1.5 billion\u00a0<\/strong>to construct.<\/p>\n The\u00a0video uses Disney as an example and highlighted that they spend\u00a0about $11.7 billion a year in park operating expenses. That works out to be a whopping\u00a0$32 million per day.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The dinosaurs\u00a0need to be fed and kept healthy and while you have those that are omnivores, the carnivorous dinosaurs eat and eat a lot.<\/p>\n To get an idea as to how much it would cost to keep all he dinos healthy and well-fed, the video uses a large zoo as an example.<\/p>\nNeed a Site for the Park & Also House the Dinosaurs<\/h2>\n
