George, still on the plane, will inevitably destroy it, killing Kate and eliminating her as a threat to Energyne. Claire plans to lure Ralph to Chicago using low-frequency radio waves each mutation is designed to respond to, where the military will kill him and Energyne will harvest his DNA. Energyne has since completed the cure, R-19, which will halt a mutation’s growth and reduce its aggression. Kate recalls Energyne’s efforts to develop a cure for the pathogen, but admits to a dejected Davis that she doesn’t have the means to administer one herself. There, Special Agent Harvey Russell muses on Davis’s time with Army Special Forces and the United Nations’ Special Anti-Poaching Task Force, then reveals that Energyne fired Kate two years ago after she attempted to steal company hard drives. Homeland Security arrests Davis and Kate and brings them aboard the plane transporting George. Even their helicopter is unable to stop him, as he destroys it by leaping into the air. In Wyoming, the mercenaries and Burke are attacked by the mutated wolf known as Ralph, who has developed wing membranes, porcupine quills and bulletproof skin. A sniper firing from a government helicopter knocks George out with tranquilizer darts. George breaks out of his cage and storms through the sanctuary, despite Davis’s efforts to calm him. Her work is responsible for the speed at which it’s working. She claims to be an Energyne geneticist, and explains that the pathogen in the canister is genetically editing George, giving him the characteristics of other animals. Kate Caldwell arrives to provide some, having heard about the Athena-1 disaster and the strange events at the sanctuary on TV. Davis refuses to consider euthanizing him, even as animal response and government official start calling the sanctuary for answers. The results of George’s bloodwork seem impossible his growth hormone levels alone should be lethal. Thanks to the American Meteorite Society, she knows one of the canisters is in Wyoming, and she dispatches a team of mercenaries led by Burke to retrieve it before anyone can trace it back to Energyne. She is unconcerned about the destruction of Athena-1, caring only about the successful mutation, which proved Project Rampage a success. In Chicago, Claire and her brother Brett meet to discuss Energyne’s plunging stock. He recovers the canister, certain it’s connected but unsure how. The next day, Davis finds George in the grizzly bear enclosure, having doubled in size and slaughtered the grizzly.

Finally, a third canister splashes in a river of the Florida Everglades where it is swallowed by a crocodile. A second canister crashes in the wilds of Wyoming near a pack of wolves and one of them is exposed with green gas. One canister lands in the gorilla enclosure, spraying George with green gas. As he drives home that evening, the canisters arrive on Earth. George then menaces Connor, but only in jest and Davis scolds George with a wink. When the newest member of the troop, Paavo, rushes a panicked Connor, he is saved by George, an albino gorilla and Davis’s best friend. However, the scratches the creature left on a glass window of the capsule soon cause it to shatter, killing her and sending the canisters hurtling towards the United States.Īt a San Diego wildlife preserve, primatologist Davis Okoye leads two students, Connor and Amy, into a gorilla enclosure. She evades the rat monster and departs Athena-1 just before it explodes with three canisters in tow. Claire Wyden, the owner of Athena-1 and CEO of the biotech company Energyne, informs Aktins that she will not be let into the escape capsule until she retrieves the other samples of the substance which caused the rat’s mutation.

Kerry Aktins and compromises the satellite’s hull integrity. It kills all of the crew members except Dr. An experiment onboard the satellite Athena-1 turns a rat into a ravenous monster.
