Show Notes

The long awaited dinosaur documentary Prehistoric Planet is finally here! The Apple  TV+ show  unveils the spectacular habitats and inhabitants of ancient Earth in an immersive digital experience. Using modern science and CGI, it gives us a possible look at the earth millions of years ago.

Trey and Miles break down the show, the science, and what they thought about the story telling.

There is no Monster Quest this episode. Instead there is coverage of the following two Prehistoric Planet Epoxides

"Coasts": A father Tyrannosaurus and his offspring swim across a perilous seaway to feed on a dead giant turtle. Alcione hatchlings take their first flight through a gauntlet of predatory pterosaurs, Barbaridactylus and Phosphatodraco. Tuarangisaurus travel to a bay in search of gastroliths. A male Mosasaurus hoffmanni is cleaned by reef denizens and defends his territory from a rival. Scaphitid ammonites perform an elaborate mating display. A distressed pregnant Tuarangisaurus is targeted by Kaikaifilu.

"Deserts": Dreadnoughtus males compete for the right to mate. Lizards are hunted by Velociraptor among a group of sleeping Tarbosaurus. A Mononykus forages for termites and investigates new food options after a brief rainstorm. Several types of dinosaurs congregate around a watering hole in Mongolia. Barbaridactylus males compete for females atop a remote plateau. A herd of Secernosaurus brave the harsh gypsum dunes in search of nourishment.
