What makes the three main enemies different?
Brontosaurus acts through rage, while Allosaurus and Dilophosaurus can plan tactics and ambush you.
The Brontosaurus is too consumed by rage to think properly. The Allosaurus and Dilophosaurus show more deliberate behavior through their tactics and ambushes.
The Dilophosaurus-like creature also has human features, including a human-like head inside its throat.
