Yeah, I think that implication was lost in the film. The characters come to realize it's all a fabrication, but the audience remains enchanted by the magic of live dinosaurs.

I didn't realize it myself until I saw a rejected poster for the film which showed dinosaur footprints on a beach and had the famous tagline, "An adventure 65 million years in the making." I thought to myself, "That doesn't make sense. The poster makes it seem like dinosaurs had survived extinction." Then I had that "Ohhhhhhhhhh...." moment when it dawned on me that, being clones with altered DNA, they're not real dinosaurs.

I'd seen the original movie more than a dozen times and it took a rejected poster to make me realize what should've been evident by the movie's end.

Within the first half hour of the movie they expressly say "these are clones and we altered their DNA."
And they also mention the frog DNA they used in reference to the dino's being able to change gender.
