Walking with Dinosaurs	comment	Walking with Dinosaurs is a 1999 BBC/Discovery Channel Speculative Documentary series focusing on... well... dinosaurs, using state-of-the-art CGI (by late-'90s standards) and animatronics to recreate Mesozoic life. It was narrated by Kenneth Branagh. Among the most expensive documentaries ever produced, the series nonetheless became a major hit, spawning the Walking withâ€¦ franchise.Six episodes present six different parts of the reign of the dinosaurs - from their birth in the Triassic Period, to their extinction. These episodes are:

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_100070c5	type	Meek Mesozoic Mammal
Walking with Dinosaurs / int_100070c5	comment	Meek Mesozoic Mammal: The cynodonts from "New Blood" are stem-mammals, and while they put up more of a fight than their descendants in the series, they ultimately have to abandon their burrows to escape the predations of the Coelophysis (note this is a world where dinosaurs aren't yet the rulers of the land). The unnamed mammal in "Spirits of the Ice Forest" (identified as Steropodon in the book and live-acted by a coati) is wimpy enough that a dinosaur the size of a small child scares it off by throwing dirt at it. Didelphodon is the representative of the mammals in "Death of a Dynasty", and is invariably shown as either a nest raider or a scavenger, with several individuals getting eaten by a female Tyrannosaurus after trying to raid her nest. Here, though, the mammals are actually doing fairly well, as the age of the dinosaurs is about to close out.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_1237828f	comment	Anyone Can Die: The series goes for a very uncensored view of the natural world and the harsh conditions dinosaurs and their contemporaries must have lived through, and through this, any number of characters can and do die for any reason. The gargantuan, seemingly untouchable Liopleurodon is washed ashore by a tropical storm and perishes, the male Ornithocheirus exhausts himself to death trying and failing to attract a mate, the Leaenllynasaura matriarch and all but one of her offspring are eaten by predators, and of course every character in the last episode dies.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_178ca149	comment	The Worf Effect: A good way to show that an animal is a badass is have it drive off, beat up, or kill the top predator of the episode, as was the case with Stegosaurus (to Allosaurus) and Ankylosaurus (to Tyrannosaurus). If the animal is another predator, another way is to have it prey on or scare away another stereotypically dangerous predator such as a theropod or shark. Most famously done with Liopleurodon; and then the several Threatening Shark examples in many "Walking With" sequels.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_17a45ff5	comment	Misplaced Wildlife: European dinosaurs Plateosaurus, and Polacanthus and the equally European pterosaurs Peteinosaurus and Anurognathus, all placed in North America in the show, not to mention Utahraptor, of all things, in Europe. The Peteinosaurus and Plateosaurus examples may be justified, since they lived at the time of Pangaea. They could easily have migrated from Europe into North America or vice versa, although no fossil evidence of this has been found. Polacanthus in North America may be based on the genus Hoplitosaurus, an ankylosaur often referred to by the European genus. The American narration refers to the ankylosaur as Gastonia, a similar animal from the proper time and place (or at least, was thought to be the proper time back then).

Compare, for example, the scene of fight between female Tyrannosaurus and the armoured herbivore Ankylosaurus from the TV series with their fight in the book. Meanwhile, the poor Ornithocheirusâ€”as if he hadn't suffered enoughâ€”dies not just of exhaustion, but of more or less getting torn apart by the rival males!

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_2557e3a9	comment	Palette Swap: Similar looking animals (like Utahraptor and Dromaeosaurus, Allosaurus and Australovenator, various ornithopods) were just these. Certain animals (like large theropods and ornithopods) only got new heads. You can tell, because many creatures have the exact same folds and blood vessels on their skin. Then, there is Plesiopleurodon, which is just Stock Footage of Liopleurodon from the previous episode, only tinted lighter. Quetzalcoatlus is the worst offender, as in its case it's obvious that the animators didn't have much time; it's just the Ornithocheirus from "Giant of the Skies" with a few minor tweaks. They didn't even edit out the teeth!

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_259d5879	type	Anachronism Stew
Walking with Dinosaurs / int_259d5879	comment	Anachronism Stew: In "New Blood", the Plateosaurus is not only geographically displaced, but temporally as well, although minor, as it is known only from the late Norian while the episode is set during the mid Norian. The unnamed cynodont is identified in supplementary material as Thrinaxodon, but this genus is only known from the Early Triassic (of South Africa and Antarctica). In "Cruel Sea", Liopleurodon, Eustreptospondylus, Cryptoclidus, and Ophthalmosaurus had already become extinct by the time the episode is set (most of them lived during the Middle Jurassic or the very beginning of the Late Jurassic, while the episode is set near the end of the Late Jurassic). In "Giant of the Skies", both Ornithocheirus and Tapejara (or more accurately Tropeognathus and Tupandactylus) lived several million years after the episode is set (the episode is set near the end of the Barremian stage, while the pterosaurs are known from the beginning of the Albian, about fifteen million years apart). The pliosaur that makes a cameo is also identified on the website as Plesiopleurodon, a genus which lived even later, during the start of the Late Cretaceous. In "Spirits of the Ice Forest", both Leaellynasaura and Koolasuchus lived before the episode is set. In the case of Leaellynasaura this is relatively minor, but for Koolasuchus this is a more major error, as by this time in Australia's history, crocodilians had arrived on the continent and probably driven them to extinction as is stated in the episode. In "Death of a Dynasty", the "one-ton crocodile" is identified as Deinosuchus, the unnamed snake as Dinilysia, and the unnamed dromaeosaurid as Dromaeosaurus in supplementary material, all of which had become extinct several million years before the end of the Cretaceous. In the case of the dromaeosaurid, it became Accidentally Correct Zoology with the later discovery of Dakotaraptor, a very similar raptor to the one in the episode (but which had feathers) that did live at the end of the Cretaceous in that region. The novelization even does this with the landmasses. Specifically, in "Giant of the Skies", North America is called Appalachia, but that name refers to the eastern half of the continent while it was cut in half by the Western Interior Seaway between 100 and 70 million years ago. As the story takes place in 127 mya, Appalachia shouldn't technically exist yet.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_269e82c1	type	Death of a Child
Walking with Dinosaurs / int_269e82c1	comment	Death of a Child: Applied on a grand scale. New Blood contained the deaths of all the cynodont young (one by being eaten by the Coelophysis, the rest eaten by their own parents in the uncut UK Broadcast/DVD). The Coelophysis themselves are also cannibals. "Time of the Titans", obviously, with all the Diplodocus youngsters (called "sauropodlets" in the show), very few of whom reach adulthood, the rest having either fallen victim to other dinosaurs (mostly predators, though one is killed when it gets in the way of a Stegosaurus's spiked tail) or died in a forest fire. Even more so in the book, where only one survives. "Cruel Sea" focuses on a generation of young Opthalmosaurus, a fish-like marine reptile belonging to the ichthyosaur group. The one we mostly follow manages to avoid death by storms, sharks, and drowning, but it's implied that most of his fellows aren't so lucky. There's also the very, very graphic instance of Death by Childbirth, in which neither mother nor baby Opthalmosaurus are left alive. "Spirits of the Ice Forest". Although many of the Leaellynasaura clan mate and lay eggs, the only ones that survive long enough to hatch are those laid by the dominant female. Even then, two out of the three hatchlings are killed (offscreen) by predators. "Death of a Dynasty" has, (besides the orphaned Tyrannosaurus young killed by the meteor at the end) the Triceratops-like Torosaurus young killed by dromaeosaurids (commonly known as "raptors") and an implied death of a picked on Tyrannosaurus. And if it counts: the small mammal Didelphodon eating the eggs. In the original cut, the female tyrannosaur goes into heat because a leak of volcanic gas kills her first litter of eggs before they hatch. Then two Didelphodon come and try to eat the almost-formed tyrannosaur embryos.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_272abb98	type	Shoot the Shaggy Dog
Walking with Dinosaurs / int_272abb98	comment	Shoot the Shaggy Dog: The episode "Giant of the Skies" was about an Ornithocheirus traveling halfway across the globe enduring various hardships in order to reach the mating grounds only to have it driven away and eventually dying from starvation and exhaustion, and it never got to mate a single time. However, the narrator does state that it managed to mate in previous mating cycles many times before, and some of its own young were among those in the mating rounds. The Mother Tyrannosaurus rex in "Death Of A Dynasty". After a nest she built prior to the start of the episode fails, she mates again and lays a fresh clutch of eggs. Unfortunately, however, out of the twelve eggs that she lays, nine of them fail to hatch, of the three that do, the youngest one doesn't last long and is implied to have been killed by its own siblings. Shortly afterwards, the mother herself is fatally injured while defending her last two young from an Ankylosaurus and suffers a slow agonizing death shortly afterwards. And, the very next day, the asteroid impact that caused the K-T Mass Extinction kills both of her only surviving offspring. As the book puts it, "Her long struggle to reproduce has come to nothing."

Coelophysis actually gets replaced by Liliensternus. The pilot short, which eventually got adapted into the episode "Cruel Sea", had the sauropod Cetiosaurus in it. For reasons unknownnote Perhaps redundancy coming after Time of the Titans and not fitting right into the story, it was omitted in the full program, as too were sauropods with high arched, swan-like necks.

However, only one of her many siblings has survived from birth alongside her, and the narrator notes that life on Earth will never again be as large as the sauropods once they go extinct. "Cruel Sea": The young Opthalmosaurus survive the odds and venture off into the ocean, but the old Liopleurodon has died a slow painful death from being beached. "Spirits of the Ice Forest": The Leallynasaura clan has survived the brutal winter and is finding a new alpha to replace the one that perished. The narrator notes that soon, Antarctica will become the icy hell it's known as year-round, dooming the local dinosaurs. Ultimately the ending to the series with the K-Pg Extinction event—the prehistoric dinosaurs are gone for good, but their lineage lives on in the birds and their extinction paved the way for the mammals (and by extension humans) to take over in their stead.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_4c4bebf4	type	Artistic License â€“ Paleontology
Walking with Dinosaurs / int_4c4bebf4	comment	Artistic License â€“ Paleontology: There are plenty of mess-ups. Some paleontologists strongly criticized the scene from the first episode where Postosuchus is shown urinating in a way more similar to that of mammals than that of the reptiles and birds it's more closely related to — so strongly in fact, that one of the series' scientific consultants, Prof. Michael Benton, decided to address their criticism. The relevant bit: "Another category of WWD-haters, the fact checkers, began compiling lists of errors in the first week. These were gleefully circulated on the e-mail lists. For example, in the first programme, Postosuchus urinates copiously. There is no doubt that it does so in the programme, and this was a moment that my children relished. However, of course, birds and crocodiles, the closest living relatives of the dinosaurs, do not urinate; they shed their waste chemicals as more solid uric acid. Equally, though, we can't prove that Postosuchus did not urinate like this: copious urination is the primitive state for tetrapods (seen in fishes, amphibians, turtles, and mammals), and it might have been retained by some basal archosaurs. Some birds and crocodilians are known to sometimes urinate a clear or yellowish fluid like urine so a urinating Postosuchus isn't entirely impossible. Also, Dr. Darren Naish is known to strongly dislike the WWD reconstruction of Tyrannosaurus due to its very wonky-looking anatomical proportions, such as its bizarrely shaped skull and hoof-like feet. Scaly raptors weren't to the paleontologists' liking even back then (the feathered non-avian theropod Sinosauropteryx had been described three years prior, two years before production began). Reusing models meant that some correct anatomical details that got carried over from one animal to the other suddenly turned erroneous. Case in point: the thumbs on hadrosaurs. The Quetzalcoatlus has teeth (although they're not easily visible) due to being recycled from the Ornithocheirus model. The book accompanying the series implies that birds are no more related to theropods than ceratopsians are to pachycephalosaurs. The Complete Guide to Prehistoric Life claims that megalosaurs are carnosaurs, when they're more likely a more primitive branch. The Liopleurodon is portrayed far larger than the largest pliosaurs, even from inflated estimates of the time (which ranged up to maybe twenty metres for the very largest), although it's handwaved as a century-old giant that is big even for his kind (presumably relying on the idea of reptiles continuing to grow as they age). Steropodon is portrayed as a scavenging raccoon-like mammal (played by a real-life coatimundi) when in actuality, it was a relative of the platypus. Posterior studies would latter show that Mesozoic monotremes lacked a beak like that of its living relatives, so at least it would have looked a bit like a "normal" mammal, though still probably not like a coati. As noted in Misplaced Wildlife and Anachronism Stew, nearly every episode has at least one animal which is unknown from the time or place in which the story is supposed to be set. For example, at the end of the first episode, a herd of Plateosaurus (known only from Central and Northern Europe) arrive in Arizona, about ten million years before it existed. The cynodonts in "New Blood" were based on two teeth found in the Chinle Formation that were (at the time) believed to belong to cynodonts (the teeth are now named Kraterokheirodon and it is unknown what type of animal they are). However, even at the time, the depiction in the episode is purely speculative, because the teeth were believed to belong to a large traversodont cynodont, which the cynodonts in the episode do not resemble. Why? Well, for one, they're depicted as predators, but traversodonts were herbivores. The Diplodocus is portrayed with a row of iguana-like spines running down its back and neck. This is based on a fossil of a still unidentified diplodocid tail with skin impressions from the Morrison Formation described in 1992. Their presence on Diplodocus specifically, and running down the back and neck, is speculative, although certainly possible, but the restoration makes one crucial error: it omits the spines from the end of the tail, the only place they're known from for sure in the actual fossil. The episode "Spirits of the Ice Forest" states that allosaur predators were rare during the Cretaceous, and only in remote refugium like the polar forests do they still hold out. Unless the narrator meant Allosaurus specifically, this is a ridiculously incorrect statement since large carnosaurs were more successful than ever during the Early-Mid Cretaceous (this is partly due to the classification of carcharodontosaurs as allosaurs being controversial at the time, but it's now widely accepted). It's stated that "Giant of the Skies" that pterosaurs with wingspans of six-metres plus were common by the Early Cretaceous. This is not true, pterosaurs of such a size did not become even remotely common until near the end of the Late Cretaceous, but during the Early Cretaceous, pterosaurs with a six-metre wingspan were exceptional (pterosaurs with 3-metre wingspans were widespread though). The end of "Giant of the Skies" implies by its wording that dinosaurs did not reach some landmasses, such as Antarctica, until the Cretaceous Period, but fossils of Antarctic dinosaurs had already been discovered dating from far earlier (such as Cryolophosaurus, from the Early Jurassic). The same episode has a tuatara (portrayed with stock footage of a modern tuatara) as a filler species. However, it's not based on any animal actually known to have existed in Australia at the time (at best, there's a humerus of a possible lepidosaur known from early strata, but this could be a lizard too, and has been suggested to a small theropod), it's based entirely on the tuatara's status as a "living fossil" and the assumption it was in the region since the Mid Cretaceous. The ending of "Spirits of the Ice Forest" implies that the polar dinosaurs of Antarctica became extinct when Antarctica drifted south and glaciated, but this didn't occur in reality until long after non-avian dinosaurs had become extinct (Antarctica did not become completely glaciated until about 10 million years ago). The only reason they disappeared is the same reason all the non-avian dinosaurs disappeared. The end of "Time of Titans" implies that the sauropods declined at the end of the Jurassic and states that sea level rise was the primary reason. In fact, the Morrison Formation strata shows that the shallow sea bordering the region was actually receding (creating the expansive salt flats seen in The Ballad of Big Al), and sauropods remained very successful and widespread until the end of the Cretaceous; only in North America did they seem to decline, and even then Alamosaurus returned to dominate the southern part of the continent in the last few million years. Hell Creek is portrayed as being a volcanic wasteland, but there is very little evidence of this (volcanic ash has been found in the formation, but it's believed to have been the result of ash thrown up by the asteroid impact). While there was intense volcanism near the end of the Cretaceous, it was in India (namely, the Deccan Traps), on the other side of the planet, and its effect on dinosaur diversity is heavily contested, even at the time.

The episode also starts with his corpse, so his fate was already made clear from the very beginning.

When their burrow is besieged by the Coelophysis, the cynodonts, having already lost one pup to the dinosaurs, are forced to eat the remaining two in order to both cheat the Coelophysis of their meal and give themselves the chance to escape. This is Truth in Television to many small modern-day mammals, most infamously hamsters. The Coelophysis themselves also turn to cannibalism when the going gets tough, though the fossil evidence which inspired this scene was later found to have been misinterpreted. The narration mentions that adult Opthalmosaurus will sometimes eat the offspring of others to increase their own young's chances of survival. At the end of the Ornithocheirus mating season, the bodies of males who have "lost out in the struggle to reproduce" are eaten by juvenile Ornithocheirus. The mother Tyrannosaurus in the final episode will, according to the narration, quickly come to view her offspring as "food"notemore likely, she would have tolerated them until they were large enough to be considered competition and chased away, though this turns out to be a moot point as she is fatally injured by an Ankylosaurus's club-like tail. It is also implied that the weakest of the Tyrannosaurus babies was killed and eaten by its siblings. In the novelization, the Tyrannosaurus chicks start to feed on their mother's corpse after she's killed by the Ankylosaurus.

The one we mostly follow manages to avoid death by storms, sharks, and drowning, but it's implied that most of his fellows aren't so lucky. There's also the very, very graphic instance of Death by Childbirth, in which neither mother nor baby Opthalmosaurus are left alive.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_d32d01aa	comment	Sterility Plague: In "Death of a Dynasty", the atmospheric pollution caused by the increase in volcanic activity at the end of the Cretaceous means dinosaur eggs are not forming properly, leading to clutches either failing completely or producing only a handful of viable eggs. This, along with everything else that was going on in the world, is taken to imply that, even if the comet strike hadn't happened, the dinosaurs were dying out anyway (this was because of the prevailing view at the time that dinosaurs were declining at the end of the Cretaceous, but the idea has been refuted many times since and has far fewer adherents now).

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_d95a4519	type	Evil Egg Eater
Walking with Dinosaurs / int_d95a4519	comment	Evil Egg Eater: The six-part series depicts the various hazards that the dinosaurs faced during the Mesozoic era. One of the most common dangers are egg eaters. In "Time of the Titans", an Ornitholestes raids a nest full of Diplodocus eggs to feast, even snatching up a newborn Diplodocus just as it was about to hatch. The Ornitholestes species are depicted as the go-to sinister antagonist for baby dinosaurs, only losing their relevance and intimidation when the babies soon grow into giants. In "Spirit of the Ice Forest" and "Death of the Dynasty", small mammals like Steropodon and Didelphodon are depicted as shrewd scavengers seizing every chance they got to raid dinosaur nests, only to be driven off by the angry mothers. In addition to the Didelphodon in "Death of the Dynasty", a dromeosaur is seen sneaking up to a T. rex nest in the hopes of snatching an egg, only to be scared off by the mother who is resting nearby. The dromeosaurs are later seen trying to kill and eat a baby Torosaurus.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_e0207930	comment	Humans Are Special: Although obviously no humans actually appear, in two episodes, two mammalian or near-mammalian species have supporting roles in the program, and they're treated with greater detail than something so minor should otherwise warrant (in one case, they were based on only two, at the time unnamed, teeth). The cynodonts are treated with the greatest sympathy in the Triassic episode, showing their close familial bonds, absent in all the other animals, while the small Didelphodon's great success and growing numbers in the face of the other dinosaurs struggling to survive the volcanic environment is shown, as though mammals were already usurping dinosaurs even before their extinction.

Deconstructed, as her valiant attempt to scare an Ankylosaurus away from her infants ends up killing her, and it's implied that her babies would have starved to death without her to protect them. Only implied, because they're soon killed by the meteorite anyway. The female Tyrannosaurus also displays the trait in the live arena show, when she scares away a Torosaurus and an Ankylosaurus that are harassing her baby.

The large Ornithocheirus (now Tropeognathus) specimen that provided the basis for the (still exaggerated) giant size stated in the show wasn't described until 2012.

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_f5c36baf	comment	Secondary Sexual Characteristics: A few examples occur here and there. For instance: Female T. rexes are portrayed as being larger and more aggressive than their male counterparts. It was a popular idea at the time, but there's very little support for this nowadays. Female Ornithocheirus are depicted as lacking the keel-like crests that the males have on their beaks, while female Tapejaras have smaller head crests than their male counterparts (both cases are purely speculative, although it is known in the distantly related Pteranodon).

Walking with Dinosaurs / int_fa9d9b8c	comment	Stock Dinosaur Archetypes: Being a Trope Codifier for modern depictions, this show focuses on depicting dinosaurs in a more complex light, best shown with Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus being shown as sympathetic and struggling predators and Leallynasaura being a protective parent in spite of its skittish and reclusive nature. There are also pterosaurs in migration and the toll their journey takes and Ophthalmosaurus having to bear the burden of caring for their young in a dangerous coast. Still, the series doesn't shy away from usual depictions like placid sauropods and herd-traveling iguanodonts and hadrosaurs.
