00:17201 million years ago, the dinosaur's world is collapsing beneath them.
00:35The continent of Pangea is tearing apart, creating a great divide and a molten apocalypse for
00:54any creature caught in this 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.
03:11It'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
03:35than the reptiles.
03:41Soar.
04:04And of course, it will change everything from the Avengers.
04:10The reign of the ancient reptiles is over.
04:53With their rivals out of the way, the dinosaurs now have a chance to rise from their ruins.
05:07And conquer the world.
05:50The reign of the ancient earth is over.
06:28Two million years later.
06:32The dawn of the most famous era in Earth's history.
06:39The Jurassic.
06:48Pangaea has split into two new landmasses.
06:57In the southern continent of Gondwana, life is thriving again.
07:08Pterosaurs have survived the destruction.
07:14The sky is allowing them to seek refuge away from the chaos.
07:30There are now endless forests here, and they are filled with dinosaurs.
07:52Dinosaurs like Massospondylus.
08:02He's barely the height of a human, so it's hard to reach the freshest food high in the trees.
08:21But he's got a bigger problem.
08:25A newly evolved rival.
08:39Volcanodon.
08:41Volcanodon.
08:47At 11 meters long, she's more than twice the size of Massospondylus.
08:57She's part of a new branch of plant-eating dinosaurs known as the Sauropods.
09:11Famous for their long necks and huge bodies that are supported by four legs instead of just two.
09:24Volcanodon.
09:27These profound changes will help these giants become the largest animals to ever walk the Earth.
09:40If Massospondylus can't compete, it will be left behind.
09:53While the Sauropods are on the rise, another legend in the making is waiting in the wings.
10:15Caves like these are crawling with strange creatures, and one of them will give rise to some of the greatest
10:28dinosaurs in history.
10:50The tiny Heterodontosaurus.
10:54The tiny Heterodontosaurus.
11:09What makes him exceptional is hard to spot at first.
11:21What makes him exceptional is hard to spot at first.
11:27He's not one to back down from a challenge.
11:39Especially when there's food at stake.
11:48It's all about the food.
12:03It's all about the food.
12:08It's all about the food in the house.
12:09But he does have a super power.
12:12An incredibly strong beak and jaw that allow him to devour almost anything.
12:26And that's not all.
12:29He also has cheek pouches, where he can store food
12:33to eat later in safety.
13:05This multi-tooled mouth will allow his descendants to become
13:10some of the greatest dinosaurs of all time.
13:18Descendants like the mighty Stegosaurus and even Triceratops.
13:26From small beginnings, great things can grow.
13:45But the dinosaurs will need more than cheek pouches
13:49to conquer the planet.
13:54On the northern side of the Great Divide lies the other new continent,
14:00Laurie is here.
14:32The Great Divide
14:32Living in these waters are the remnants of a once-great empire.
14:50The Reptiles.
15:00They are a deadly threat.
15:02They have been usurped in these murky shallows.
15:07But they also need to be wary.
15:14Because they no longer rule the Jurassic swamps.
15:27They have been usurped by those they once hunted on Pangea's shores.
15:40dinosaurs.
15:41Dinosaurs.
15:47Dilophosaurus.
15:49Dilophosaurus.
15:52With over 60 serrated teeth, she's twice the length of a polar bear.
16:09And a laser-focused hunter.
16:24And a laser-focused hunter.
16:28And a laser-focused hunter.
16:29But in these flooded forests, there are creatures even more frightening than her.
16:41And the vision of theseог nurses.
17:20Like a moth to a flame, she follows the mysterious cause.
18:01A male Dilophosaurus.
18:09Larger and deadlier than her.
18:24He's drawn her here for a reason.
18:35But it's not bloodlust.
18:39It's just plain lust.
18:45A coating ritual.
18:50Clawing at the ground is a display of strength.
18:56And to show off his virility, behold his crimson head crest.
19:16Finally, the grand finale.
19:23The song of the Swamp King.
19:45For a ferocious predator, he's remarkably gifted.
19:57But the future of her bloodline depends on her choice.
20:02And he's just not gifted enough.
20:16Ensuring the continuation of their species is critical.
20:22But far below, the Earth itself poses a threat to their very existence.
20:47This time, from the Jurassic Seas.
21:02An alien world.
21:08Full of bizarre creatures.
21:23The most dangerous of them all.
21:28The pliosaurs.
21:34The great sea monsters that rule the oceans.
21:41They are one reason that dinosaurs have not entered this frontier.
21:50But the real threat to the dinosaurs lies below.
22:03Methane.
22:15This greenhouse gas was frozen under the seabed for millions of years.
22:23But warming oceans are causing it to leach out.
22:28With a devastating sound effect.
22:32For the entire globe.
22:42Extreme heat.
22:49The endless forests that Masospondilus once roamed.
22:54Are now a parched wasteland.
23:07The plants he relied on for food.
23:11Are nearly all gone.
23:19Many of his kind have died from starvation.
23:24And the rising temperatures have turned his home into a tender box.
23:31Home.
23:51The
23:52dmgwg.
23:53The
23:53dmgwg.
23:54Let's go.
24:25It's the final nail in the coffin for Masospundus.
24:38Their 17 million year existence brought to a tragic end.
25:08Eventually, other dinosaurs will rise to take their place.
25:20In that time, Earth's two continents will
25:24drift even further apart, creating a fragmented world
25:31with new lands for the dinosaurs to conquer.
25:56It's more than 20 million years since the fall of Masospundus,
26:02and here in the mountains of what will one day be China,
26:08the climate has cooled.
26:13Life is flourishing.
26:23And a revolution is taking place.
26:44Within these cold dawn forests, something is stirring.
27:10The great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:16The great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:26Mamentisaurus.
27:29A giant of the Jurassic.
27:33The great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:38The great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:41The great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:45The great four-legged dinosaurs.
27:51Nearly 40 million years after their ancestor, Fulcanodon,
27:56made its monumental rise.
28:00Mamentisaurus is now so gigantic,
28:04they're just standing up as a mammoth task.
28:33Hymn, Tremont, A Virin, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn, Hymn.
28:37Jungs, Jungs, Jungs, Jungs.
28:54They have the longest necks of any animal in history that can reach as high as a five-story
29:03building, and they are not the only giants that live in this forest.
29:15The trees are reaching ever greater heights as well, to avoid being completely consumed
29:21by these towering beasts.
29:29But there is a catch to being this tall.
29:35A 15-meter-long neck can only support a tiny head that houses a brain smaller than an apple.
30:10The evolutionary focus on size over smarts will help the sauropods become the most dominant
30:18herbivores of the Jurassic Age.
30:34But they are not the only ones in this forest who are moving up in the world.
30:50Anki Ornis.
30:54Yes, he looks a bit like a chicken.
30:58And he is about the size of one.
31:03But he's nevertheless a dinosaur.
31:09A dinosaur with feathers and newly evolved wings.
31:38Cyan raptor.
31:45Cyan raptor.
31:45.
32:02.
32:10His primitive wings are next to useless on the ground.
32:34But that doesn't mean he's confined to the ground.
32:40Let's go.
33:12Up here, his wings aren't just for show.
33:32He's one of the first dinosaurs to be able to glide.
33:44And with such skill, that he can even catch food mid-air.
33:55Flight will turn out to be one of the dinosaur's greatest leaps forward.
34:11But Angionis is still just a beginner here.
34:22For the time being, this airspace belongs to the pterosaurs.
34:40The flying dinosaurs are outgunned in the skies for now.
34:50But in time, the pterosaurs will meet their match.
35:03As the planet continues to evolve, so do the dinosaurs.
35:15And as the end of the Jurassic draws nearer,
35:21their control over the land on both continents is only getting stronger.
35:36It's seven million years since Angionis took to the air.
35:48Here, in what will one day be North America,
35:57Geothermal heat simmers at the surface.
36:00An echo of past extinctions.
36:14The sauropods here are larger than ever.
36:21Their strategy of bigger is better is paying off.
36:31But these dinosaurs are evolving on an altogether different track.
36:43Stegosaurus.
36:49A far cry from their tiny, cheek-stuffing ancestors.
36:57They are now as heavy as elephants.
37:01And equipped with armor, camouflage, and weapons.
37:09And here in the late Jurassic, they need the protection.
37:29Because there is danger in these dark forests.
37:41And here in the late Jurassic, they are the most successful predators of their day.
37:42Allosaurus.
37:48Eight meters long, with dagger-like teeth, they are the most successful predators of their day.
37:55And here in the late Jurassic, they are the most successful predators of their day.
38:02But this young male is not stalking.
38:08He's stealing.
38:09He's stealing.
38:16A female.
38:22Same species.
38:24But larger, stronger, and battle-scarred.
38:31One of them.
38:36Let's go.
39:11The young male is lucky she didn't kill him.
39:59The rainstorms have passed.
40:05The young male hasn't eaten in weeks.
40:16He has no choice but to try his luck on a herd of Stegosaurus.
40:33But he can't hide his approach when he's out in the open.
40:39Which gives the herd time to prepare their defenses.
40:48They form a wall of moving bodies and spikes.
40:58It's intimidating and confusing for the young Allosaurus.
41:07He can't pick out which one to attack.
41:21But he's got other problems.
41:26The veteran female has just joined the game.
41:32And she's been playing this game for a lot longer than he has.
41:44She's able to isolate one of the herd.
41:53But Stegosaurus has evolved a perfect weapon.
41:59A mace-like tail with meter-long spikes.
42:02Called a thagomizer.
42:08The veteran female has just come together.
42:10The veteran female has been locked in a dire way from the force.
42:16And the veteran female has fought against the leader.
42:23There are no officers as well as a team.
42:26And they're including the veteran female.
42:27The veteran female has not melted the middle.
42:28For the veteran female is the full system.
42:30They didn't fight against the other side.
42:30The veteran female has no choice but to hide him.
42:43Let's go.
43:03For the female, it's game over.
43:12For the young male, it's payback.
43:18And lunch.
43:20Because Allosaurus are cannibals.
43:37Fifty million years after surviving an apocalypse, the dinosaur's dominion over Earth is now absolute.
43:59But the world they've come to know is changing.
44:10Temperatures are dropping across the globe.
44:18Bringing snow to the northern regions of the planet.
44:26Something few dinosaurs have ever experienced.
44:38From these frozen lands, a new kind of dinosaur will rise.
44:53The Tyrannosaurs are coming.
44:57The Tyrannosaurus.
45:00The Tyrannosaurus.
45:04The Tyrannosaurus.
45:07The Tyrannosaurus.
45:08The Tyrannosaurus.
45:12The Tyrannosaurus.
45:13The Tyrannosaurus.
