"I'd take the risk," he tells her. As if he needs to tell her. Both of them know how thrill-seeking the other is. A dangerous animal isn't anything new to the warden, and even knowing just how powerful a dragon is wouldn't deter him. Sure, he'd like to stay alive, but taking a chance isn't as off-putting as it is for others.
"The jeep," he replies with equal certainty. Even with the kinder animals, there's a lot of ground to cover. "Come on."
Seeing Muldoon stride about the place with some poor soul in tow isn't exactly unusual, and nobody really takes much notice of the two as they head back to the vehicle. When they get back in the radio chatters away small updates, which Muldoon clearly listens to but doesn't seem concerned by. He just likes to make sure his team are doing their job.
This time they're soon turning off the beaten path to the rougher roads maintenance and wardens use. They pass through one of the gates of the high voltage fence and find themselves in one of the paddocks with no roads to follow at all. For a long stretch it looks like any other part of the island. Beautiful, lush plantlife and rolling green plains. While Muldoon did have a particular first-destination in mind, something on the radio catches his attention. He turns and heads down a different route.
They crest a ridge and Muldoon puts the jeep into park. From here they have a lovely view. A stream, thick bushes dotted around, and a herd of triceratops happily mulling around the quiet area, occasionally calling to each other in gravelly huffs and grunts.
