The sound effects used for the Pteradons are roars of tigers and mountain lions. For Freefall, the albino pteradon who bonds with David Scott, sounds of baby black bears were added, to give Freefall's character a different tone from the other pteradons.
The complete Dinotopian code is:
Survival of all or none. One raindrop raises the sea. Weapons are enemies, even to their owners. Give more, take less. Others first, self last. Observe, listen, and learn. Do one thing at a time. Sing every day. Exercise imagination. Eat to live, don't live to eat. Don't put out the light.

The word Dinotopia is a portmanteau of "Dino(saurus)," which means "a terrible lizard" in Greek and "Utopia" (u+topos), in Greek, literally translating to "out of place." When combined, the title means "Out of place for a terrible lizard."
