Welcome, to Charles Darling's Triassic Preserve!
The past - today!
— Steam Workshop description
 ”

Enclosure is a community-made, three-stage Payload map released during the Jungle Inferno Update. The map depicts certain enclosures and facilities of Charles Darling's Triassic Preserve. Mr. Darling's finest exhibits include Pteranodon, Brachiosaurus, Triceratops, Velociraptor, and Tyrannosaurus rex in enriching environments.

A portion of the money made from the sales of the Jungle Inferno Campaign Pass goes to the authors of the map.

Spoilers: This map contains many Easter eggs and visual references to content of the Jurassic Park film franchise (and a few to Team Fortress 2 culture) that some players may want to discover on their own. Some of these map features are described or pictured in this page.
