Ancient Earth: Dinosaurs Of The Frozen Continent
Deep under Antarctica’s blanket of ice lies traces of a lost world of Dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures. Great forests once covered the now frozen Antarctic continent; gargantuan Titanosaurs roamed its valleys, and proto-mammals darted through the undergrowth. It was also home to the largest carnivore of its day, the Cryolophosaurus – Antarctica’s T-Rex. This two-part series follows paleontologists on a journey of exploration to uncover fossil evidence of these ancient animals and plants that once thrived here. They quest to unravel the mysteries of how these creatures survived in a land located in the polar circle, where it is dark for four months a year.
