After Tim Murphy restored power, she accompanied Grant and Gennaro to the raptor nest to document the number of animals that survived. While Ellie did not appear in The Lost World, it was mentioned in the novel that Lewis Dodgson had hired Ed James to follow her. Ellie Sattler was Alan Grant's partner/girlfriend and worked with him at the dig site in Montana. There's an impatience about Ellie, as if nothing in life happens quite fast enough for her.James reported she married a physicist from Berkeley. Early in the film, it was shown that Ellie wanted to have children, while Alan was against the idea entirely as he dislikes kids.When Ellie and Muldoon returned to the Jeep, the Tyrannosaur burst from the trees after them.

She spotted the other car, tossed over the edge of the barrier to the T. When they inspected the wreckage, she found footprints leading off into the park.
This piece of evidence gave Ellie hope that Grant and the kids were still alive.
Ellen "Ellie" Degler (née Sattler), is a paleobotanist. During the events of the first book and first film she was invited by John Hammond to Jurassic Park.
She also appeared in Jurassic Park III, where she's married to Mark Degler and has two children from him, Charlie Degler and another unnamed baby sibling. She was a paleobotanist, a paleontologist who specializes in the study of prehistoric plants. Ellie was asked to come to the park by John Hammond, who hoped that she would endorse it.
When they arrived at the Triceratops Enclosure she was amazed by the ill Triceratops they found, shedding tears of joy.
Bringing in her skills, Ellie probed deeper into the Triceratops' periodic sickness and came to the conclusion that it was because they ate the poisonous West Indian Lilac plants in their territory, though could not initaially determine how since the animals didn't ingest the plants themselves.Ellen "Ellie" Sattler was a graduate student at the Snakewater dig site. She was 24 years old and darkly tanned, most likely due to sun exposure during her digs. Sattler agreed, and was, like Grant, originally thrilled with the prospect of Jurassic Park and the large sum of money she was being paid to inspect it.However, she saw the dangers of mixing dinosaurs with humans.Because she stayed in the Triceratops Enclosure, she was not attacked by the Tyrannosaurus like the rest of the group.She later joined Robert Muldoon as he went to the Tyrannosaurus Paddock to rescue the survivors, finding one missing tour jeep and what little the Tyrannosaurus had left of Donald Gennaro.
