00:17Two hundred and one million years ago, the dinosaur's world is collapsing beneath them.
00:35The continent of Pangaea is tearing apart, creating a great divide and a molten apocalypse for any creature caught in
00:56this hell.
01:13For both reptiles and dinosaurs, escape is impossible.
01:31But the worst is yet to come.
01:38An invisible killer is choking the air itself.
01:49Clouds of toxic gases wreak devastation.
02:08Acidic fog poisons everything in its path.
02:35As the gases in the atmosphere grow thicker, temperatures soar.
02:43Annihilating three quarters of all plant species and millions of animals across the planet.
03:10It's known as the End Triassic Mass Extinction.
03:16And it will change everything for the dinosaurs.
03:25Because their versatility and ability to adapt helped them survive this catastrophe far better than the reptiles.
04:05And it will change everything for the animals.
04:06The reign of the ancient reptiles is over.

07:05the destruction, the sky is allowing them to seek refuge away from the chaos.
07:26There are now endless forests here, the saurs.
07:43Dinosaurs like Massospondylus, he's barely the height of a human, so it's hard to reach
07:56the freshest food high in the trees.
08:11But he's got a bigger problem, a newly evolved rival.
08:37At 11 meters long, she's more than twice the size of Massospondylus.
08:47She's part of a new branch of plant-eating dinosaurs known as the sauropods.
09:01Famous for their long necks and huge bodies that are supported by four legs instead of
09:11just two.
09:17These profound changes will help these giants become the largest animals to ever walk the
09:26earth.
09:30If Massospondylus can't compete, it will be left behind.
09:44While the sauropods are on the rise, another legend in the making is waiting in the wings.
10:05Caves like these are crawling with strange creatures.
10:13And one of them will give rise to some of the greatest dinosaurs in history.
10:40The tiny Heterodontosaurus.
10:59What makes him exceptional is hard to spot at first.
11:11One thing is clear, however, he's not one to back down from a challenge.
11:29Especially when there's food at stake.
11:38It's all about the food.
11:53He may only weigh as much as a chihuahua, but he does have a superpower.
12:02An incredibly strong beak and jaw that allow him to devour almost anything.
12:15And that's not all.
12:18He also has cheek pouches where he can store food to eat later in safety.
12:25So, let's see.
12:27So..
12:55This multi-tooled mouth
12:57will allow his descendants
12:59to become some of the greatest
13:02dinosaurs of all time.
13:08Descendants like the mighty
13:10Stegosaurus
13:11and even Triceratops.
13:16From small beginnings,
13:19great things can grow.
13:35But the dinosaurs
13:36will need more than cheap pouches
13:39to conquer the planet.
13:44On the northern side of the Great Divide
13:48lies the other new continent,
13:50more easier.
14:19On the northern side of the Great Divide
14:22remaining in these waters
14:24are the remnants of a once
14:26great empire.
14:40The reptiles.
14:50They are a deadly threat
14:52in these murky shallows.
14:56But they also need to be wary.
15:04Because they no longer rule
15:07the Jurassic Swamps.
15:17They have been usurped
15:19by those they once hunted
15:23on Pangea's shores.
15:30Dinosaurs.
15:37Dilophosaurus.
15:42With over 60 serrated teeth,
15:47she's twice the length
15:48of a polar bear.
15:59And a laser-focused hunter.
16:03And a laser-focused hunter.
16:18But in these flooded forests,
16:25there are creatures
16:27even more frightening
16:29than her.
16:30And a laser-focused hunter.
16:38Like,
16:38more laughs.
16:42You'll see.
16:44You'll see.
16:45You'll see.
16:53You'll see.
17:10Like a moth to a flame, she follows the mysterious cause.
17:39Like a moth to a flame, she follows the mysterious cause.
17:51A male Dilophosaurus, larger and deadlier than her.
18:15He's drawn her here for a reason.
18:25But it's not bloodlust.
18:28It's just plain lust.
18:35A coating ritual.
18:40Clawing at the ground is a display of strength.
18:46And to show off his virility, behold his crimson head crest.
19:07Finally, the grand finale.
19:13The song of the Swamp King.
19:35For a ferocious predator, he's remarkably gifted.
19:47But the future of her bloodline depends on her choice.
19:52And he's just not gifted enough.
20:07Ensuring the continuation of their species is critical.
20:12But far below, the Earth itself poses a threat to their very existence.
20:36This time, from the Jurassic Seas.
20:52An alien world.
20:58Full of bizarre creatures.
21:13The most dangerous of them all.
21:18The pliosaurs.
21:24The great sea monsters that rule the oceans.
21:31They are one reason that dinosaurs have not entered this frontier.
21:40But the real threat to the dinosaurs lies below.
21:53Methane.
22:05This greenhouse gas was frozen under the seabed for millions of years.
22:13But warming oceans are causing it to leech out.
22:18With a devastating sound effect for the entire globe.
22:32Extreme heat.
22:39The endless forests that Massospondilus once roamed.
22:44Are now a parched wasteland.
22:57The plants he relied on for food.
23:01Are nearly all gone.
23:09Many of his kind have died from starvation.
23:14And the rising temperatures have turned his home into a tender box.
23:21More, of course.
23:36Thecia Elliot.
23:41If you happy, don't survive.
23:44Let's do that soon!
23:46Homer.
23:48And theолж.
23:50Was I the only because...
24:15It's the final nail in the coffin
24:18for Massospondylus.
24:27Their 17 million year existence
24:31brought to a tragic end.
24:58Eventually, other dinosaurs will rise to take their place.
25:09In that time, Earth's two continents will drift even further apart, creating a fragmented
25:20world with new lands for the dinosaurs to conquer.
25:46It's more than 20 million years since the fall of Massospondylus, and here in the mountains
25:55of what will one day be China, the climate has cooled.
26:02Life is flourishing.
26:13And a revolution is taking place.
26:34Within these cold dawn forests, something is stirring.
27:00Sauropods, the great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:17Mementosaurus, a giant of the Jurassic.
27:32Mementosaurus, a giant of the Jurassic.
27:41Nearly 40 million years after their ancestor, Fulcanodon, made its monumental rise.
27:50Mementosaurus is now so gigantic that just standing up is a mammoth task.
28:28Mementosaurus, a giant of the Jurassic.
28:44They have the longest necks of any animal in history that can reach as high as a five-story building.
28:59And they're not the only giants that live in this forest.
29:04The trees are reaching ever greater heights as well to avoid being completely consumed by these towering beasts.
29:19But there is a catch to being this tall.
29:25A 15-meter-long neck can only support a tiny head that houses a brain smaller than an apple.
30:00The evolutionary focus on size over smarts will help the sauropods become the most dominant herbivores of the Jurassic Park.
30:24But they're not the only ones in this forest who are moving up in the world.
30:40Ankyornis.
30:41Ankyornis.
30:44Yes, he looks a bit like a chicken.
30:48And he is about the size of one.
30:51But he's nevertheless a dinosaur.
31:00A dinosaur with feathers.
31:04Ankyornis.
31:05And newly evolved wings.
31:12Ankyornis.
31:23Ankyornis.
31:29Ankyornis.
31:34Orbsonis.
31:35Ankyornis.
31:35Another dinosaur.
31:38But one willing to hunt its own tiny cousin.
32:00His primitive wings are next to useless on the ground.
32:24But that doesn't mean he's confined to the ground.
32:57The ground is next to the ground.
32:58Here, his wings aren't just for show.
33:16He's one of the first dinosaurs to be able to glide.
33:29And with such skill that he can even catch food mid-air.
33:40Flight will turn out to be one of the dinosaurs' greatest leaps forward.
33:56But Ankyonis is still just a beginner here.
34:07For the time being, this airspace belongs to the pterosaurs.
34:25The flying dinosaurs are outgunned in the skies for now.
34:36But in time, the pterosaurs will meet their match.
34:48As the planet continues to evolve, so do the dinosaurs.
35:00And as the end of the Jurassic draws nearer, their control over the land on both continents is only getting
35:12stronger.
35:21It's seven million years since Ankyonis took to the air.
35:33Here, in what will one day be North America,
35:41Geothermal heat simmers at the surface.
35:46An echo of past extinctions.
35:59The sauropods here are larger than ever.
36:07Their strategy of bigger is better is paying off.
36:16But these dinosaurs are evolving on an altogether different track.
36:27Stegosaurus.
36:34A far cry from their tiny cheek-stuffing ancestors.
36:42They are now as heavy as elephants.
36:46And equipped with armor, camouflage, and weapons.
36:54And here in the late Jurassic, they need the protection.
37:14Because there is danger in these dark forests.
37:19Because there is danger in these dark forests.
37:27Allosaurus.
37:32Eight meters long, with dagger-like teeth.
37:36They are the most successful predators of their day.
37:47But this young male is not stalking.
37:53He's stealing.
37:57He's stealing.
38:01A female.
38:07Same species.
38:09But larger.
38:11Stronger.
38:12And battle scarred.
38:14There.
38:39There's no ground mean?
38:41We have to do this.
38:42Scots.
38:42We're trying to prove the strong sunlight to gets to our core.
38:42Yeah, we have to do this.
38:44The former hunter systems are starting to destroy everything.
38:56The young male is lucky she didn't kill him.
39:43The young male is lucky she didn't kill him.
39:44The rainstorms have passed.
39:50The young male hasn't eaten in weeks.
40:01He has no choice but to try his luck on a herd of Stegosaurus.
40:18But he can't hide his approach when he's out in the open, which gives the herd time to prepare
40:28their defenses.
40:33They form a wall of moving bodies and spikes.
40:43It's intimidating and confusing for the young Allosaurus.
40:52He can't pick out which one to attack.
41:06But he's got other problems.
41:11The veteran female has just joined the game.
41:17And she's been playing this game for a lot longer than he has.
41:29She's able to isolate one of the herd.
41:37But Stegosaurus has evolved a perfect weapon called a thagomizer.
42:13Stegosaurus has evolved a perfect weapon of the herd of Stegosaurus.
42:43For the female,
42:45it's game over.
42:53For the young male,
42:54it's payback.
42:59And lunch.
43:02Because Allosaurus are cannibals.
43:17Fifty million years after surviving an apocalypse,
43:21the dinosaur's dominion over Earth
43:25is now absolute.
43:39But the world they've come to know is changing.
43:50Temperatures are dropping across the globe.
43:59Bringing snow to the northern regions of the planet.
44:06Something few dinosaurs have ever experienced.
44:18From these frozen lands,
44:21a new kind of dinosaur will rise.
44:33The Tyrannosaurs are coming.
44:37The Tyrannמש
44:39The Tyrann jeansких
