What's the first dinosaur seen in "Jurassic Park"?

"Jurassic Park" absolutely blew everyone's minds in 1993 with dinosaurs that looked so real, people were checking their rearview mirrors for T-Rexes on the drive home. Admittedly, the idea of a dinosaur park sounds kinda fun, and when Dr. Grant and his team drive inside, it looks almost charming. Before everything went wild, which prehistoric beast did we first see?
▼
Correct Answer: Brachiosaurus
The Brachiosaurus totally stole the show as the first dinosaur in "Jurassic Park," appearing when our heroes first roll up to the park and Dr. Grant has a literal jaw-dropping reaction. This was the first time anyone had created realistic animal skin using computers in a movie. The effects team nailed it so perfectly that Steven Spielberg cried when he saw the finished scene, which is pretty wild considering how common CGI is now.
