Sažetak
This research note examines the influence of Jurassic Park on paleontological tourism and public perceptions, drawing on Cultivation Theory and Cultural Studies. The film's depiction of de-extinct dinosaurs has fueled public fascination while raising ethical concerns about the commodification of nature. This research note examines how the film has shaped niche tourism and public engagement with paleontological sites, blurring the lines between science and entertainment, and offering insights into societal debates on scientific progress and human intervention. This further enhances our understanding of how media influences niche tourism and public attitudes toward science.
