Summary:
Walking with dinosaurs recreates the world of the dinosaurs and uses animatronics to show the daily struggles of creatures such as the Coelophysis, Diplodocus, Ophthalmosaurus, Ornithocheirus, and Leaellynasaura. The Allosaurus special examines the fossil specimen known as "Big Al" and speculates about what his life might have been like. Walking with prehistoric beasts looks at the creatures, particularly mammals, that evolved after dinosaurs became extinct.
