00:5266 million years ago
00:56During the great reign
00:58Of the dinosaurs
01:06Majestic creatures
01:10Giants
01:10And monsters
01:13That can often seem more imagined
01:16Than real
01:20Including
01:22This Pachycephalosaurus
01:29He's an old alpha male
01:33Eager to get back to his harem of females
01:42But something's caught their attention
01:49A rival male
01:56If the alpha doesn't get there
01:58He may lose them to the intruder
02:05There's just one problem
02:10There's a herd of giants in his way
02:25But holding on to his family
02:28Is all that matters
02:39He'll risk his life to reach them
02:55He'll risk his life to reach them
03:16He may have survived the crossing
03:19But the battle
03:21The battle has just begun
03:24The trespasser
03:26Is younger
03:27Stronger
03:28And more aggressive
03:38And he won't surrender these females
03:41And he won't surrender these females
03:43Without a fight
03:48Their four inch thick skulls
03:51Are designed for a brutal style of combat
03:54Their four inch thick skulls
04:16Neither side is backing down.
04:31This time, the alpha is hurt.
04:39Days invading fast.
04:41His hold on his family is slipping away.
04:48Sensing his weakness, the intruder prepares for a finishing blow.
05:08But in the world of Tyrannosaurus Rex, the only battle that counts is for survival.
05:24This is the age of the dinosaurs.
05:30The
05:30The
05:30The
07:37Millions and millions of years in the past on a planet that looks nothing like it does today.
07:50Where extraordinary beasts clash and struggle to survive.
07:59And where Earth's violent forces determine their fate.
08:08The story begins.
08:10The story begins 235 million years ago.
08:15In an era known as the Triassic.
09:06It's vast.
09:07It's vast desert interior is more like the surface of Mars.
09:14than planet Earth.
09:25Temperatures here are brutally hot.
09:36In some places it hasn't rained.
09:40In some places it hasn't rained in thousands of years.
09:46But there's something far worse than the heat.
09:51But there's something far worse than the heat.
10:11Few creatures can survive in a world this extreme.
10:16Few creatures can survive in a world this extreme.
10:41But not all of Pangaea is a desert wasteland.
10:48Along its fringes, the warm lush coastlines are the perfect place for life to thrive.
11:01This is a time long before the age of the dinosaurs.
11:07It is the age of the ancient reptiles.
11:17Like Tynastrophus.
11:19Like Tynastrophus.
11:23A six meter long nightmare that stalks the shallow sea.
11:37And Rhynchosaurs.
11:40One of the most successful reptiles in all of Pangaea.
11:55To each other, they're brutes and bullies.
12:06But to this reptile, they're just the terrified locals.
12:20A four meter long apex predator of his time.
12:33But he's not here for the Rhynchosaurs.
12:37He sniffed out an easier target.
12:48A clutch of eggs.
12:56Very special eggs.
13:01Because growing inside them are the very first of their kind.
13:25A baby Marasuchus.
13:28A baby Marasuchus.
13:36A dog pan separately.
13:37She wieves no more than a mouse.
13:42But she makes up for it.
13:45Because she has a set of skills that sets her apart from the ancient reptiles, including
13:56the remarkable ability to stand on two legs, not just four.
14:12She also has advanced lungs and lighter bones, adaptations that give these little hatchlings
14:25an invaluable gift.
14:30They are born to run.
14:36And in this day and age, they need to.
14:58Their only hope is to find a place to hide.
15:07Easier said than done when you've hatched into hell.
15:21All her siblings are gone.
15:28The survival of her bloodline is now hanging by a thread.
15:36But thanks to her, it's still intact.
15:42Which is vital, because her descendants are the dinosaurs.
16:05One year later, Marasuchus is now fully grown.
16:15But when you're the size of a pigeon in a land of monsters, you're still just prey.
16:29Now, Marasuchus must make it through another night.
16:36It's critical, because if this dinosaur in the making doesn't survive, her family tree could
16:45be cut down before it even take root.
16:55She's picked up a scent.
16:59Something worthy of her bloodline.
17:08A rhynchosaur carcass.
17:11A rhynchosaur carcass.
17:41Nuprasuchus.
17:42Nupra Suga's.
17:43Nupra Suga's.
17:44This is his kill.
17:46And he does not intend to share.
17:56But as night approaches, temperatures start to drop.
18:22The colder it gets, the drowsier the giant reptile becomes.
18:32Meanwhile, the warmer-blooded Marasuchus has a feathery fuzz that keeps her cozy.
18:46The perfect attire for a daring heist.
18:50The better that is.
18:52Let's go.
19:22Let's go.
20:04Let's go.
20:08Let's go.
20:10Let's go.
20:33Let's go.
20:42Let's go.
20:55Let's go.
21:00Let's go.
21:14Let's go.
21:22Let's go.
21:52Let's go.

22:36Let's go.
22:40Let's go.
22:42Let's go.
22:49Let's go.
22:56Let's go.
22:59Let's go.
23:00across the globe carving vast rivers into the once dry continent
23:20known as the carnian fluvial event
23:26this series of storms will be the longest downpour in history lasting more than a million years
24:01when the rains finally do subside pangea emerges transformed
24:15a world reborn
24:27what were endless deserts are now forests
24:33new lands that will help set the course for the rise of the dinosaurs
24:45but first the reptile empire must falter
25:02the air in these woods is thick with the smell of tree resin
25:15nature is unforgiving here
25:25the once prosperous plant-eating reptiles
25:30are on the decline
25:44not only is this rinkosaur alone she's starving
25:55in this new world of towering trees
26:00the low-lying plants that once allowed her species to thrive
26:07have all but disappeared

26:51And she has a more immediate problem than hunger.
27:04A relative of the fearsome Luperosuchus.
27:11For these reptilian carnivores, this is a time of great opportunity.
27:32Unlike the nimble Marasuchus, she's slow, weak, vulnerable.
27:59The Rinkosaurs were once among the most successful of the plant-eating reptiles.
28:09Now their extinction is just a matter of time.
28:43It's a matter of time.
28:43As the kingdom of the ancient reptiles begins to fracture, another kind of animal is on the rise.
28:59The dinosaurs.
29:10And in this changing world, they must be adaptable.
29:19They must evolve.
29:25They must improve over time.
29:30And transform in ways that will help them survive.
29:39Finally, 12 million years after the demise of the Rinkosaurs, the dinosaurs can begin to come out of the shadows.
29:58As the end of the Triassic draws near, vast forests still dominate the land.
30:06Now more vibrant than ever.
30:11And the dinosaurs are reaping the benefits.
30:24Like Platyosaurus.
30:27A dinosaur trailblazer.
30:41This little one and her siblings are embarking on a mission.
30:47To explore their new world.
30:52With almost no regard for the dangers it may hold.
31:10They may not look any bigger than little Marasukas.
31:16But when they grow up, they grow up bigger.
31:23Much bigger.
31:27They are the first dinosaurs to become gigantic.
31:37Over seven meters long, they've come a long way since their tiny ancestors ran for their lives.
31:51And unlike the Rinkosaurs, these giants can easily reach the higher vegetation.
32:12They even have a trick for reaching the most tender shoots of all.
32:37Excessive maybe.
32:41But worth it.
32:46Because an adult Platyosaurus must eat 25 kilos of plants each day.
32:57And to wash down that much food requires a lot of water.
33:17The most it's very deep in a Tonya tree.
33:21It is also a hugeimy plant.
33:21And it's too much wet.
33:23To break these plants again.
33:23I need to remove the whole variety of flowers.
33:23The most beautiful plants is in this place.
33:24So we take that from a part.
33:24And like the other rainforest is in this place.
33:26That was such a big part.
33:26The most important, though, could be the only joueism.
33:27Here's a beautiful place.
33:27So we can enter the forest because it's entirely different.
33:27Now, if you have a little bit of one in here.
33:28We don't see anything.
33:31You have to be a little more beautiful, you have to be a little bit.
33:33The most beautiful thing is inside.
33:40It's an easy life, but in the age of the early dinosaurs, even a giant like Platiosaurus
33:55must be careful, because there is another dinosaur on the rise, a newcomer with a taste for blood.
34:20A carnivore with razor-sharp teeth and killer claws.
34:39His descendants will one day include Tyrannosaurus Rex, but for now, this angry predator is only
34:52the size of a turkey.
35:06While the matchup between these two dinosaurs may be a little lopsided, it won't stay that
35:21way.
35:25Over time, a fierce rivalry will grow between two great dinosaur clans, the herbivores and
35:39the carnivores.
35:46But for the time being, all dinosaurs are facing a much greater threat than each other.
36:20In the water and on land, the ancient reptiles remain top of the food chain.
36:51The dinosaurs are growing as a force in the world.
36:56But their rise is slow.
37:01The planet still belongs to the reptiles.
37:10For the dinosaurs to truly challenge them, it will take millions of years.
37:36By the end of the Triassic, the dinosaurs are ready to flex their muscles.
37:50But there are new creatures also vying for domination.
37:56And in the mountains of Tangia, some of them have taken to the air.
38:14Pterosaurs, flying reptiles with a wingspan of two meters.
38:26And they are in total command of the Triassic skies.
38:46These jagged peaks are their mating grounds.
39:07And this male has spotted a female.
39:16First, eject the competition.
39:28Now, it's time for the courtship to begin.
39:47During these rituals, the pterosaurs are focused entirely on each other, not their surroundings.
40:00In the mountains, which can be costly, because dinosaurs dwell in these canyons.
40:25The largest member of the carnivore clan.
40:33Lillian Sternus.
40:38Twice as long as a grizzly bear with claws that can tear through flesh.
40:48And with her finely tuned sense of smell, she doesn't miss a thing.
41:10Lillian Sternus is so broken.
41:13Lillian Sternus …
41:26Lillian Sternus 2
41:31Dozens of eyes are circling above.
41:36Even with her camouflage, one wrong move could blow her cover.
42:26I'm not going to die.
42:27I don't know.
43:01This moment marks a new chapter in the rise of the dinosaurs.
43:10At last, they are a force to be feared, but the commotion of her attack has attracted
43:25another predator.
43:29The ancient reptiles have terrorized the dinosaurs from the beginning, but that ends now.
43:44Lillian Sternus won't be skulking back to the shadows.
43:53She can hold her ground.
44:07The trouble is, here at the end of the Triassic, the ground itself is about to throw the entire
44:19dinosaur story into chaos.
