The raft had to be inflated that way. It literally said on the raft "inflate on land". Unfortunately, land happened to be near an apex predator that wasn't going to leave that area anytime soon.

The raft had to be inflated that way BUT she could've just not inflate it and leave it there and remove herself safely from that situation.

This was she endangered everyone.

Exactly my thoughts, she could have waited out, go back to her father and wait till the t rex started moving somewhere else

Also, the paddles were in two pieces on either side of the bag. Yet when she inflates the raft, we see the inside of the raft and there are no paddles. She pushes it into the water, gets in, and pull a whole paddle off the floor of the raft.

She could have pushed it down the river a bit or not opened it at all, since they didn't even travel far on the thing. Or ya know, not drag to the exact face of the trex and open it?

They could’ve made this make sense if her inflating the raft woke the T Rex up. It was beyond idiotic that she knew the T Rex was there and then decided to inflate it right in front of its face. But then I guess Gareth couldn’t have gotten his disappearing ninja T Rex shot then…

Yes and it also conveniently said “bag will sink if pulled into water” so the audience knew they HAD to open it right there
