Maria Cortez is affiliated to the paleontology department of Bogata University. When Maria starts hearing stories of dinosaurs in jungle of Columbia, South America she seeks them out only to find Turok the Dinosaur Hunter is killing them. She requests his help to capture them for the purpose of breeding them, unaware that these dinosaurs are bio-genetically intelligent creatures and not the animals she thinks they are. Turok refuses to help but Maria gets her way when she discovers that they are reproducing without Turkos help.
