00:50Earth
00:52Sixty-six million years ago
00:56During the great reign
00:58Of the dinosaurs
01:05Majestic creatures
01:09Giants
01:10And monsters
01:12That can often seem more imagined
01:16Than real
01:19Including
01:21This 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
02:41To reach them
02:55He'll risk his life to reach them
03:16He may have survived the crossing
03:19But the battle has just begun
03:24The trespasser is younger
03:27Stronger
03:28And more aggressive
03:38And 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
04:16Neither side
04:17Is backing down
04:31This time
04:33The alpha is hurt
04:39Days invading fast
04:41His hold on his family is slipping away
04:48Sensing his weakness
04:50The intruder prepares
04:52For a finishing blow
05:07But in the world of Tyrannosaurus Rex
05:15The only battle that counts
05:18Is for survival
05:25This is the age
05:28Of the dinosaurs
05:29אף
05:30A
05:56Of the...
06:59This is the story of the dinosaurs, as it has never been told before.
07:19It takes place in a world lost to time.
07:26Long before the infamous asteroid.
07:37Millions and millions of years in the past.
07:41On 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 fates.
08:08The story begins 235 million years ago.
08:15In an era known as the Triassic.
08:21Where a twist of evolution will change the course of history.
08:31The supercontinent of Pangaea.
08:38A single immense land mass that stretches from pole to pole.
09:05Its vast desert interior is more like the surface of Mars.
09:14Than planet Earth.
09:25Temperatures here are brutally hot.
09:37In some places, it hasn't rained in thousands of years.
09:47But there is something far worse than the heat.
10:04Sandstorms.
10:11Few 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.
10:55The life to thrive.
11:01This is a time long before the age of the dinosaurs.
11:07It is the age of the ancient reptiles.
11:22A six-meter-long nightmare that stalks the shallow sea.
11:37A six-meter-long nightmare that stalks the shallow sea.
11:40A six-meter-long nightmare that stalks the shallow sea.
11:41One 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.
12:28But to this reptile, they're just the terrified locals.
12:33But he's not here for the rank of source.
12:37He's sniffed out an easier target.
12:40He's sniffed out an easier target.
12:40He's 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.
13:24A baby Marasuchus.
13:36She waves 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.
13:55Including the remarkable ability to stand on two legs.
14:01Not just four.
14:12She also has advanced lungs and lighter bones.
14:21Adaptations that give these little hatchlings an invaluable gift.
14:30They are born to run.
14:36And in this day and age, they need to.
14:58They're only hope is to find a place to hide.
15:07Easier said than done.
15:09When 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.
15:45Because her descendants...
15:48Are the dinosaurs.
15:51Marasuchus.
16:05One year later, Marasuchus is now fully grown.
16:15But when you're the size of a pigeon.
16:18In a land of monsters.
16:21You're still just prey.
16:30Now, Marasuchus must make it through another night.
16:36It's critical.
16:38Because if this dinosaur in the making doesn't survive.
16:43Her family tree could be cut down before it even takes root.
16:55She's picked up a scent.
16:59Something worthy of her bloodline.
17:08A rhynchosaur carcass.
17:30But it's already been claimed.
17:38By her old nemesis...
17:41Nupra Sugus.
17:43This is his kill.
17:45And he does not intend to share.
17:57But as night approaches...
18:01Temperatures start to drop.
18:21The colder it gets...
18:24The drowsier a giant reptile becomes.
18:32Meanwhile...
18:33The warmer blooded Marasuchus...
18:36Has a feathery fuzz...
18:38That keeps her cozy.
18:45The perfect attire...
18:48For a daring heist.
18:50To make the technology.
18:52Well, it is not about...
19:01The cesarean is the enemy's dying...
19:01He's the enemy's dead...
19:03The enemy's.
19:04You have a good deck.
19:04The enemy's.
19:06A growinga threat.
19:07You have a good map.
19:08You're a good look.
19:08The enemy's.
19:10The enemy's.
19:12The enemy's.
19:18Let's go.
19:44If she plays it right, she may just get her moonlit dinner for one, a feast fit for a dinosaur.
20:15Marasuchus has great potential.
20:18She's adaptable with traits that make her special.
20:25But if the dinosaurs are to challenge the ancient reptiles, it will take more than skills.
20:35It will take a powerful ally.
20:40The Earth itself.
20:49A million years later, in the far north of Pangaea, the darkest forces of nature are awakening.
21:09A series of volcanic eruptions is creating a catastrophe.
21:19One that will alter the fate of the dinosaurs.
21:27But the danger is not the lava.
21:34It's a gas.
21:42Carbon dioxide.
21:46Chilling the skies and warming the planet.
21:51The rising temperatures cause a massive surge in ocean evaporation.
22:10Huge storm clouds descend on the continent of Pangaea.
22:28But this will be no ordinary rainfall.
22:59It swoops across the globe.
23:06Carving vast rivers into the once dry continent.
23:19Known as the Carnian fluvial event.
23:26This series of storms will be the longest downpour in history.
23:33Lasting more than a million years.
23:37The Earth.
24:01When the rains finally do subside,
24:04Pangea emerges, transformed.
24:15A world reborn.
24:26What were endless deserts are now forests.
24:33New lands that will help set the course for the rise of the dinosaurs.
24:44But 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 are on the decline.
25:44Not only is this rhinosaur alone, she's starving.
25:55In this new world of towering trees, the low-lying plants that once allowed her species to thrive,
26:07have all but disappeared.
26:28She won't survive if she can't reach her food.
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 rhinocosaurs were once among the most successful of the plant-eating reptiles.
28:09Now their extinction is just a matter of time.
28:23The
28:44As the kingdom of the ancient reptiles begins to fracture,
28:52Another kind of animal is on the rise, the 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 rancosaurs, the dinosaurs can begin
29:49to come out of the shadows.
29:58As the end of the Triassic draws near, vast forests still dominate the land, now more vibrant
30:09than ever.
30:12And the dinosaurs are reaping the benefits.
30:24Like Platyosaurus, a dinosaur trailblazer.
30:40This little one and her siblings are embarking on a mission to explore their new world with
30:53almost no regard for the dangers it may hold.
31:10They may not look any bigger than little Marasukas, but when they grow up, they grow up 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.
31:52And unlike the rancosaurs, 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, but worth it.
32:46Because an adult Platyosaurus must eat 25 kilos of plants each day.
32:58And to wash down that much food requires a lot of water.
33:24So what's the most important is, they'll beITE the Lance to eat 25 kilos.
33:24I'm about to break a lot of water so they can't eat 25-36-36.
33:24They should not be kept in the life of all the plants they can.
33:24There's some plants they can use.
33:25But a lot of little seeds to eat at least a lot of water.
33:25It's not really good at least.
33:27But a lot of water Thursdays tall and they're not really good at least.
33:30Maybe there's some plants that'll be the way they come to the forest.
33:30This is really cool.
33:30You ain't really cool but there's not going to be the only way they're using.
33:31I can hope they can I will.
33:34It's really cool.
33:40It's an easy life, but in the age of the early dinosaurs, even a giant like Platyosaurus
33:55must be careful, because there is another dinosaur on the rise, a newcomer with a taste for blood.
34:21A 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 the two great dinosaur clans, the herbivores
35:36and the 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.
37:20more powerful, more advanced.
37:22Shaped by Earth's dynamic forces, they grow fiercer, more powerful, more advanced.
37:37By the end of the Triassic, the dinosaurs are ready to flex their muscle.
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.
38:15Pterosaurs, flying reptiles with a wingspan of two meters.
38:27And 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.
39:13And this male has spotted a female.
39:46One of these cultures of the sheils are spaced higher.
39:50And these men see the conditions.
39:50The pterosaurs are focused entirely on each other not their surroundings
40:00Which 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
40:53She doesn't miss a thing
41:14She doesn't miss a thing
41:17She doesn't miss a thing
41:30She doesn't miss a thing
41:32Dozens of eyes are circling above
41:36Even with her camouflage
41:38One wrong move
41:41Could blow her cover
41:43Dozens of eyes are circling above
42:02Dozens of eyes are circling above
42:03Vog Coin
42:03You have a blitz
42:06How little can you open theㅋ
42:07So people won't be able to raise that
42:08snitch
42:08Let's go.
42:38Let's go.
43:33Let's go.
43:36Let's go.
43:38But 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,
44:13the ground itself is about to throw the entire dinosaur story into chaos.
44:22Let's go.
44:28Let's go.
