The Dinosaurs Episode 2 PrimeCut Series
Transcript
00:18201 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 help them survive this catastrophe far better
03:35than the reptiles.
03:37That's it.
03:37That's what this is.
03:57That's it..
03:58That's it.
04:03Your search will help you.
04:04Oh, yeah.
04:07I've really moved to the anomaly tonight.
04:07That's all in the water.
04:10The reign of the ancient reptiles is over.
04:54With their rivals out of the way, the dinosaurs now have a chance to rise from their ruins.
05:07And conquer the world.
06:04And conquer the world.
06:07And conquer the world.
06:36And conquer the world.
06:39The Jurassic.
06:48Pangaea has split into two new land masses.
06:57In the southern continent of Gondwana, life is thriving again.
07:08Terror-swords have survived the destruction, the skies allowing them to seek refuge away
07:18from the chaos.
07:31There are now endless forests here, and they are filled with dinosaurs.
07:53Dinosaurs like Massospondylus.
08:03He's barely the height of a human, so it's hard to reach the freshest food high in the
08:09trees.
08:21But he's got a bigger problem, a newly evolved rival.
08:40Volcanodon.
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
09:22two.
09:22two.
09:27These profound changes will help these giants become the largest animals to ever walk the
09:36earth.
09:42them together.
09:45One.
09:51One.
09:53One.
09:53One.
10:00One.
10:01A legend in the making is waiting in the wings.
10:15Caves like these are crawling with strange creatures.
10:24And one of them will give rise to some of the greatest dinosaurs in history.
10:51The tiny Heterodontosaurus.
11:09What makes him exceptional is hard to spot at first.
11:21One thing is clear, however.
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.
12:03He may only weigh as much as a chihuahua.
12:08But he does have a superpower.
12:12An incredibly strong beak and jaw.
12:16That allow him to devour almost anything.
12:25And that's not all.
12:29He also has cheek pouches.
12:32Where he can store food to eat later in safety.
12:37That's not all.
12:50Is he be입니다.
12:53That's stupid, not all.
12:54I can, as well be.
13:02To be honest with you.��겠습니다.
13:05This multi-tooled mouth will allow his descendants
13:09to become some 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 to conquer the planet.
13:54On the northern side of the Great Divide
13:58lies the other new continent, Loresia.
14:05Iteria is a great writer
14:05The Great Divide
14:06The Great Divide
14:32Out of the Great Divide
14:35are the remnants of a once great empire.
14:50The reptiles.
15:00They are a deadly threat in these murky shallows.
15:06But they also need to be wary.
15:15Because they no longer rule the Jurassic swamps.
15:27They have been usurped
15:30by those they once hunted on Pangea's shores.
15:40Dinosaurs.
15:47Dilophosaurus.
15:52With over 60 serrated teeth.
15:57She's twice the length of a polar bear.
16:09A laser-focused hunter.
16:10And a laser-focused hunter.
16:13In these flooded forests.
16:35There are creatures even more frightening than her.
17:20Like a moth to a flame, she follows the mysterious cause.
17:33The
17:33The

17:34The

17:38To be continued...
18:09Larger and deadlier than her.
18:25He's drawn her here for a reason.
18:36But 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,
19:00behold his crimson head crest.
19:05Clawing at the ground is a display of strength.
19:25Clawing at the ground is a display of strength.
19:45For a ferocious predator,
19:48he's remarkably gifted.
19:57But the future of her bloodline depends on her choice.
20:03And he's just not gifted enough.
20:16Ensuring the continuation of their species is critical.
20:23But far below,
20:25the Earth itself poses a threat to their very existence.
20:47This time,
20:50from 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.
21:51But the real threat to the dinosaurs lies below.
22:03Methane.
22:15This greenhouse gas was frozen under the seabed for millions of years.
22:24But warming oceans are causing it to leach out.
22:29With a devastating sound effect for the entire globe.
22:43TheELLOWE
22:44Extreme HEAT
22:50The endless forests,
22:51that Masos Pondylist 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
23:21from starvation
23:24and the rising temperature
23:26have turned his home
23:29into a tinderbox

24:25it's the final nail
24:27in the coffin
24:28for mastospundalus
24:38their 17 million year existence
24:41brought to a tragic end
25:08eventually other dinosaurs will rise to take their place
25:19in that time earth's two continents will drift even further apart
25:28creating a fragmented world
25:30with new lands for the dinosaurs to conquer
25:57it's more than 20 million years since the fall of mastospundalus
26:02and here in the mountains of what will one day be china
26:07the climate has cooled
26:13life is flourishing
26:23and a revolution is taking place
26:27and a revolution is taking place
26:44within these cold dawn forests
26:48something
26:50is stirring
26:52the great four-legged dinosaurs
27:14the great four-legged dinosaurs
27:15the great three-legged nature
27:17the great three-legal
27:51Nearly 40 million years after their ancestor, Fulcanodon,
27:56made its monumental rise,
28:01Mamingchisaurus is now so gigantic
28:04that just standing up is a mammoth task.
28:35Aeronauta is realized that through the
28:54They have the longest necks of any animal in history
28:59that can reach as high as a five-story building.
29:09And 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.
30:50Ankyornis.
30:55Yes, he looks a bit like a chicken.
30:59And he is about the size of one.
31:01But he is nevertheless a dinosaur.
31:09A dinosaur with feathers and newly evolved wings.
31:38Cyanraptor.
31:44Cyanraptor.
31:45Another dinosaur.
31:48But one willing to hunt its own tiny cousin.
32:10His primitive wings are next to useless on the ground.
32:34But that doesn't mean he's confined to the ground.
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 dinosaurs' greatest leaps forward.
34:11But Ankyonis is still just a beginner here.
34:22For the time being, this airspace...
34:31belongs to the pterosaurs.
34:40The flying dinosaurs are outgunned in the skies for now.
34:51But 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, their control over the land on both continents is only getting
35:27stronger.
35:36It's seven million years since Ankyonis 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 psoropods here are larger than ever.
36:22Their strategy of bigger is better is paying off.
36:31But these dinosaurs are evolving on an altogether different track.
36:42Stegosaurus.
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.
37:42Allosaurus.
37:47Eight meters long, with dagger-like teeth, they are the most successful predators of their day.
38:02But this young male is not stalking.
38:08He's stealing.
38:16A female.
38:22Same species.
38:24But larger.
38:26Stronger.
38:28And battle scarred.

39:41The young male is lucky she didn't kill him.
40:00The 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.
41:58A mace-like tail with meter-long spikes.
42:03Called a thagomizer.

43:22Because Allosaurus are cannibals.
43:37Fifty million years after surviving an apocalypse,
43:42the 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.
44:19Bringing snow to the northern regions of the planet.
44:26Something few dinosaurs have ever experienced.
44:38From these frozen lands,
44:41a new kind of dinosaur will rise.
