00:10One hundred and twenty-five million years ago, winter rages across the north.
00:26Entire species have been pushed to the brink.
00:40Even the largest dinosaurs are unable to endure this cold.
00:52Like these sauropods migrating south.
01:04Wreda came early this year and caught them off guard.
01:19With hundreds of kilometers ahead of them, this time it will be an especially harsh journey.
01:33But the bitter cold is not the only danger in this frozen land.
01:41There is a much greater threat here in these woods.
02:06Euteranus, the Snow King.
02:13An early relative of T-Rex.
02:20With a thick, insulating coat of feathers, he's perfectly adapted for life in a world this cold.
02:35But his feathers also serve a more sinister purpose.
02:46An early relative of T-Rex.
02:47Camouflage.
02:49The ultimate weapon for an ambush hunter.
03:16The ultimate weapon for an ambush hunter.
03:41Oh, my God.
03:52In a savage, ever-changing world, some will rise, and some will fall.
04:06But through it all, the dinosaurs will expand their empire and advance relentlessly to seize Earth's final frontiers.
04:31In a savage, ever-changing world, some will rise, and some will rise.
04:49The intended story is truly separate.
04:49The WIN key, very familiar world, some will rise, and some will rise up to Earth's final cost for Earth's
05:07final time.
05:47It's a new age for life on Earth.
05:52An age of extremes.
05:56New worlds are forming that will give rise to the most famous dinosaurs of all time.
06:10The North is still gripped by cold, but not for much longer.
06:23Earth's most violent forces are staring once again.
06:33Volcanoes see the fume, warming the planet.
06:52But some will pay a price for this warmer world.
06:57And we'll be right back.
07:45As global temperatures continue to rise,
07:51the snow and ice all but disappear.
08:00Huge, meltwater rivers tear through the land.
08:11This thawing of the north is expanding the dinosaur's empire even further.
08:20And in surprising new ways.
08:31In this fresh fertile landscape, sauropods no longer need to migrate.
08:39But it's also a new world for one of the dinosaur's oldest rivals, the pterosaurs.
08:51They are now bigger and badder than ever.
09:01Including Grey Draco, the ghost dragon.
09:13But he's an intruder here.
09:21Because these trees are the home of Longipteryx.
09:27A new kind of dinosaur.
09:31Less than 20 centimeters tall, but highly territorial.
09:38Especially during nesting season.
09:55They're also equipped to take on the pterosaurs.
10:03Now they, too, can fly.
10:16In a previous era, flying dinosaurs like Ancyonis could only glide.
10:25Now they're able to flap their wings and maneuver with precision to strike at their enemies.
10:43They're fast and fearless.
10:58It only gets worse for the towering pterosaur.
11:04Because Longipteryx are distant cousins of Eutyrannus, the Snow King.
11:12They're armed with the teeth and claws of their clan.
11:28After ruling the skies since the Triassic, pterosaurs are now being matched by the dinosaurs.
11:46But as the dinosaurs fight to expand their empire into the air, an even greater revolution lies ahead.
12:06Not in the mountains, or the skies, or the oceans.
12:14The biggest twist in Earth's tale is unfolding quietly, almost in secret.
12:27Seven million years later, this new force is slowly rewriting the dinosaur's story.
12:50This is one of the first flowers this forest has ever seen, just one, in a vast and diverse
13:02new generation of plants, and they will become a phenomenon with the help of a close ally, beetles.
13:23They carry pollen from one flower to the next, nature's most reliable delivery service, helping
13:45these new plants spread far and wide across the globe, transforming the dinosaur's empire.
14:12But this new generation of plants has a dark side.
14:25While they need to attract pollinators, many are also evolved to repel herbivores, with
14:38spines, thorns, and poisons.
14:50Nature's defensive weapons.
14:58This green revolution changes everything for the plant-eating dinosaurs.
15:20They are herd animals by nature, but this young stegosaur, barely two years old, is all alone.
15:39She is the last of her herd.
15:54To eat these tougher new plants requires mouthful and chew food, in a way her primitive jaw
16:02cannot.
16:11She's starving.
16:17She's starving.
16:29She's starving.
16:32to this new world.
16:41It's one reason why their 50 million year existence
16:45will come to an end.
16:50Extinction.
16:58But in the wake of the Stegasaur's demise,
17:03a new era will emerge.
17:11Over the next 15 million years,
17:15these new plants evolve and diversify.
17:21Spreading across the planet and ever further
17:25into the dinosaur's empire.
17:36The Green Revolution now covers the globe.
17:42And not just the land, but the water as well.
17:52Even providing cover and food for underwater explorers like ankylosaurs.
18:27This bathing beauty is a different kind of dinosaur.
18:39He's a plant eater, like the Stegasaurs, but a fancier one.
18:46Much fancier.
18:54Because unlike the Stegasaurs, his advanced jaw can crush food
19:02in a way that makes eating any kind of plant easy.
19:09It's the perfect adaptation for this diverse new world.
19:22He wants to take full advantage of all this great kingdom has to offer.
19:30He wants to take full advantage of all this community.
19:30And he has a plan.
19:41It's a long trek.
19:46But the journey is worth it.
20:07This is the one place where he can truly be himself.
20:23His passion is singing.
20:33He even has special aloes in his snout that amplify his song.
20:44So it can be heard far and wide.
20:48It can be heard far and wide.
21:19He won't go.
21:31This is a 9-year-old creative series.
21:33I have no idea.
21:34I can't wait.
21:35I can't wait.
21:37It's time to have no idea.
21:40I can't wait.
21:41I can't wait.
21:43I can't wait.
21:45I can't wait.
21:48I'll wait.
21:48Then, he shows her his stylish armor.
22:04It's all very persuasive.
22:27Their fancy attire does have some drawbacks, mind you.
22:36On the hold, though, heavy armor and an improved jaw are setting them up for success.
22:50But what no dinosaur could possibly know is that their empire has been gradually shrinking.
23:04Hidden below the waves, this world, once ruled by dinosaurs,
23:15is now completely out of their reach.
23:25And there's a reason...
23:32...at the very bottom of the ocean.
23:37A slow, imperceptible shift...
23:43...reshaping the planet.
23:51The seabed is fracturing...
23:55...from an endless progression of eruptions.
24:25Earth's tectonic plates are shifting.
24:30Breaking apart the ocean floor, lifting it higher over millions of years.
24:42The water above has nowhere else to go but up.
24:49By the middle of the Cretaceous, sea levels reach their highest point in history.
24:57Over 200 meters higher than they are today.
25:18The rising oceans repaint the map of the world,
25:24erasing entire land masses.
25:30The continent of Europe is reduced to a giant archipelago
25:35that includes the Isle of Hanzig.
25:45Where isolation and evolution have created a kind of neverland for the dinosaurs.
25:54A world where normal rules don't apply.
26:04This is the home of Magyarosaurus.
26:10A sauropod.
26:15And, like other sauropods, he uses his long neck to reach the highest vegetation.
26:33The thing is, this vegetation is only two meters tall, which makes Magyarosaurus about the size of a pony.
27:02On Hanzig, where there's limited space and food, sometimes smaller is better.
27:27But, unlike Magyarosaurus, for predators, digger is still better.
27:49As tall as a giraffe, one of the largest pterosaurs to ever live.
28:00The nightmare Hatzigopteryx.
28:09She's flown to this island to feed on dinosaurs.
28:25The youngest member of the herd gets separated.
28:36But it won't be an easy catch.
28:41Unlike his giant cousins, he's white on his feet.
28:55Another audi felon.
28:57A hero hanging around with his home too.
29:12But being this small, he can't see the other.
29:24They found a safe hiding spot, perfect for their size.
30:12They found a safe hiding spot, and they found a safe hiding spot, and they found a safe hiding spot.
30:29They found a safe hiding spot, and they found a safe hiding spot.
30:32They found a safe hiding spot, and they found an safe hiding spot in the above.
30:37The most inualá constructor is in the bit of quiet space, so they found a safe hiding spot, and they
30:45found this hiding spot.
31:12The tiny dinosaurs trapped on an island.
31:17There's nowhere else to go.
31:31But in a world so divided by the ocean, evolution takes different turns in different places.
31:53The sea levels are close to the highest they've ever been, creating a water world that no dinosaur
32:09has dared to enter.
32:19But that's about to change.
32:35Lurking in this mangrove swamp is a carnivore that has specially evolved to take on the final frontier.
32:56A dinosaur pioneer.
33:12Spinosaurus.
33:13Spinosaurus.
33:17Spinosaurus.
33:19Spinosaurus.
33:20The largest predator to ever walk the Earth.
33:27Spinosaurus.
33:29Spinosaurus.
33:30At 15 meters long, she's bigger than a school bus.
33:41The forest provides plenty of prey, but another reason she's gotten this big is because of
33:54where she goes to escape the gloom of the swamp.
34:14Here, the high sea levels have turned the oceans into a new hunting ground for the
34:21dinosaurs, where bigger is definitely better.
34:54Spinosaurus is adapted to a planet that is now mostly ocean, and in this age, some of
35:03the largest prey is here in the water.
35:23Sharks.
35:29In a flat-out chase between a shark and a giant, dog-paddling dinosaur, the shark will
35:37always win.
35:42But there's more to Spinosaurus than meets the eye.
35:53Dinosaurs aren't just becoming bigger.
35:57Some are cunning, too.
36:01She's going to make the sharks come to her.
36:07What do you think of the sharks?
36:11You think of the sharks?
36:13How do you think of the sharks?
36:15Her snout is wired with sensors that can detect the slightest movement.
36:26Now, all she needs to do is keep completely still.
36:48The best hunters are the patient ones.
36:55And her patience is starting to pay off.
37:06The blood in the water is drawing the sharks closer.
37:33The distance is the eye of the water, and she is learning to see the eye of the other.
37:33Paid up the water in the water.
37:34The area is also working with the sunlight.
37:38The water is a person who is watching and is recording.
37:39Dirty water is also working.
37:41And he has been cooking and des проблемы.
37:42It's also working on zeals.
37:44To be honest, the brain is making sure that theeye becomes the way the power is moving.
37:53She doesn't move.
38:00She knows how this game is played.
38:23Brains and brawn, a killer combination that is finally letting the dinosaurs get a foothold
38:35in the ocean.
38:45Their reach is now global and extends to the very ends of the Earth, to what will one
38:59day be Antarctica.
39:11While Spinosaurus is stalking the shallow seas and the tropics, the world's southernmost
39:20landmass is not the frozen wilderness we know today.
39:26It's a green, flourishing Eden, where even in the dark, evolution is lighting the way.
39:51And thriving in the darkness are the dinosaurs.
40:09By this stage in the late Cretaceous, their empire is so vast that they now dominate every continent
40:19on Earth.
40:29And yet, while their reign is global and their rule almost unchallenged, their story will take
40:45a dark turd.
41:00In a sense, they willfinitely enjoy and control and use many trabajos in their battle
41:03take care of the Weisemos and active men andulan.
41:03Now it's written in the world of Australia for a long time ago and love the gent killing the
41:04disciples of tents, aọn of the census of Revelation for a long time, but I do not know how they
41:07behave as far as his children are.
41:07generation of the census of Christians and guests is a modern age.
41:07You shall not hear names but the Star is murdered instead of the �� 넣.
