Warriors from an indigenous tribe appear, aiding them in rescuing the professors, along with Achille, the son of their own chieftain. Malone and Agnes are chased by an Allosaurus, but evade it when it falls into a manmade trap.Įscaping the trap, Edward and Agnes find Roxton at the lake, learning the apes kidnapped Challenger and Summerlee. Malone finds a lake which he names after his fiancé Gladys. Venturing in the plateau's jungle, they find several species of dinosaur, a flock of pterosaurs, and a strange species of aggressive, carnivorous ape men. However, when all but Kerr make it across, he suddenly knocks the tree into the gorge and leaves Challenger and the others stranded. They later find a gorge leading straight to the plateau, using a tree as a substitute bridge. They reach the edge of the plateau and find a cave concealing a pathway to the plateau but discover a blockage. However, in the jungle, the expedition's porters flee out of superstition, but Kerr arrives, repeatedly trying to convince the bull-headed Challenger to turn back. Agnes volunteers to join the expedition as a translator. Roxton immediately takes a liking to Agnes' unladylike behaviour and flirts with her. They travel to a Christian mission in the Amazon, meeting Agnes Clooney and her uncle Reverend Theo Kerr, who condemns Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. On the voyage to South America, Challenger reveals a map created by a Portuguese man named Father Luis Mendoz leading to a remote Brazilian plateau where he encountered dinosaurs during a previous expedition. However, hunter Lord John Roxton, and Daily Gazette columnist Edward Malone both volunteer to join and finance the expedition. Challenger proposes an expedition to discover the home of the pterosaur, but is dismissed by the science community. Returning to England, Challenger crashes a lecture at the Natural History Museum held by his rival, Professor Leo Summerlee. While in the Amazon rainforest, Professor George Challenger shoots an animal he believes to be a pterosaur.
