Strategy for a scenario where there aren't many dinosaur around the portal and/or a new safe place is relative close.
Use some:
- UGV (unmanned ground vehicle) for understand the situation behind the portal and some for reconnaissance on each direction
- UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles) for start a mapping of the territory for above (using camera and LiDAR)
Use at least five precious minutes for reconnaissance.
Use military vehicle (i specify later something more specific):
- tank (with a size according to the existing space) able to transport at least 3 military, 1 combat medic with medic kit level 3, 1 or 2 civilian if is possible, and rations for at least two days, and ammunition for the portable firearm, that should be used also as initially temporary defensive perimeter (making a circle or a rectangle)
Each military, included the combat medic with an assault rifle that use the caliber 7.62x51mm NATO, as last resort against relatively small dinosaurs (perhaps could be efficient if the seize is no more then 3 times a human beign) with a:
- riflescope 1-4x
- laser targeting systems
- night-vision
- grenade launcher on the rifle for bigger target
The civilian could take the same firearm or use what they have already (but only one longer firearm at max two handgun for limit of space).
Full equiped with night vision, thermal vision, bullet protection (at least for smaller dinosaur must be of some help).
Add even smaller tracked and don't tracked IFV(Infantry Fighting Vehicle).
Essentially a total of 3 type of military armed and shielded vehicle for defense/reconnaissance.
- vehicles more properly for transport, heavily shielded
- vehicles for construction and manual instrument for construction and agriculture
- cutting tools suitable for jungles, for the kitchen, etc
- generators
- solar panels
- wind turbines of medium size, to assemble later
- surveillance cameras
- infrared motion detectors
- grenades
- grenade launcher
- plastic explosive
- mines
- diving equipment with some robots also if later is find a lake or other (just in case, but since are present dinosaur even under water without thinking of diving for fun)
- sonar
- Remote Sensing with radar using some small drone and small helicopters radio controlled
- laptops (all relevant information will be printed on paper)
- antennas for communication and remote control
- a lot of battery
- a lot of fuel
- seed
- food and water
Civilian: agronomists, paleontologists, engineers, metallurgists, etc. each one of them with some book and instruments useful for their job.
All volunteers.
For a total of people perhaps around 300-350.
Once is found an appropriate allocation, after finished to make a location, reduce at minimum the use of fuel and find an alternative.
Before the vehicle became useless for lack of fuel arrange them in an appropriate manner so that at least can be used as long is present ammo for their weapons and as partial outer defensive perimeter.
Use no more then two military vehicle each time, for save fuel, after the allocation is finished for get what you need from the surroundings.
Make test, as soon as possible, for understand what is edible from the local flora and fauna. Initially using a laboratory, later see if the rabbit eat it, later, after boiling it, only few people should try to eat very small quantity, if after one week seem that there aren't any problem, some other can try, if after three week everything remain fine, it is reasonable to think that are safe.
Given that observation alone of dinosaur that eat something don't give the security that the human could eat it.
Regarding the transport of animals ... mmm ... I think is problematic because they make noise and attract undue attention from local animals.
