Claire was an infant Stegosaurus that appeared in The Lost World. According to Julianne Moore the robot of this creature was named "Claire" by the film crew.[1]

The Lost World: Jurassic Park[]

Hammond's team lands on Isla Sorna they first encounter the Stegosaurus herd that is eating near the river. Dr. Sarah Harding approaches the herd to see their infant Claire. Crawling up to the grazing infant, Sarah used a Nikon F5 to take several pictures of Claire before touching the infant’s head and snout, which Claire allowed. However, after taking a few more pictures, the camera ran out of film, causing it to rewind the roll. The noise from this spooked Claire, who gave a distressed howl. The adult Stegosaurus in the herd, who noticed Sarah too close to the infant, charged Dr. Harding. Sarah, dodging the adult’s sweeping thagomized tails, took shelter in a hollow log where she narrowly avoided impalement. The Stegosaurus adults, apparently appeased that Sarah was no longer a threat, quickly left the area with Claire in tow.

Stegosaurus hatchling came with the Sarah Harding action figure of the lost world toyline. It is presumed that the individual is Claire.
