Reception

Danica Davidson of Otaku USA praised the story, characters, and extra notes from Fujiwara, noting that "Dinosaur Sanctuary does a good job of making [dinosaurs] like animals with personalities, rather than monsters in a monster movie".[13] Jonathan Greenall of Comic Book Resources praised the tone and art style. Additionally, Greenall felt the series does a good job of describing how to care for animals.[14] J. Caleb Mozzocco of School Library Journal also praised the artwork and characters. Mozocco felt the plot was "[Jurassic Park but] the park works like it was supposed to".[15]

The series ranked 20th in the 2023 Next Manga Award in the print manga category.[16]
