I mean, it's just a theory, but we had a really random assortment of birds that some people mentioned, and then my group ran into a dinosaur. So, it... just seems like those might mean there are random creatures being dropped here on the island. There might not even be a consciousness behind it. If there's some sort of-of tear in reality, it would make sense, right? It wouldn't just be people coming through. Just whoever or whatever was unlucky enough to get caught in it.

I don't know why it would trap you in one form, though. Or leave you without an arm.
