Claymation, graphics, animations and facts about dinosaurs combine to present a realistic and accurate view of what life was like during the dinosaur age. In addition, students will learn different theories on dinosaur extinction, theories on unanswered questions and hard evidence in paleontology versus supposition and guesswork. Narrated by Martin Sheen and based on the popular book series.
