Sea Monsters: Prehistoric Creatures of the Deep

Prehistoric marine reptiles, both alien and awe-inspiring, at once utterly inhuman and somehow irresistibly compelling. Nothing can prepare you for this amazing plunge into the Cretaceous oceans of 80 million years ago, a merciless realm ruled by some of the most ferocious animals ever to stalk the seas of planet Earth. It scarcely seems possible that these swift, massive underwater predators actually existed, but they did, and this is their fascinating, unforgettable story.

Chased by Dinosaurs: Three Walking with Dinosaurs Adventures DVD

Travel back in time with dino-hunting zoologist Nigel Marven as he embarks on three exciting adventures into earth's prehistoric past – each as seen on the BBC. In The Giant Claw, the search is on for Therizinosaurus, a 75-million year old herbivore that's built like a meat-eater. Its enormous 28-inch claws and 10-foot arms are more than enough to keep the average predator away – but not Nigel. Land of Giants sees Nigel and his crew leap back to the early Cretaceous period to what is now Argentina. There, they stumble upon the Holy Grail of dinosaurs – Argentinosaurus. At over 100 feet long, it's the largest lizard ever. Then, in Chased by Sea Monsters, the team plumbs the depths of prehistory's seven deadliest seas. Prepare for up-close encounters with sea scorpions, terrifying giant squid, massive armored fish and the unthinkable Megalodon – the ancient relative to today's Great White Sharks.

Before the Dinosaurs: Walking with Monsters DVD

From the makers of Walking with Dinosaurs and Walking with Prehistoric Beasts comes the prequel: the epic and entertaining story of life on earth before the dinosaurs and beasts.  It's life, but not as we know it.  Before dinosaurs a succession of fantastic animals and plants ruled the planet.  There was a time when two-ton predatory fish came on land to hunt, when 26 foot sea scorpions sliced sushi in the shallows, when just one species of lumbering reptile represented eighty percent of all life. State of the art digital technology breathes life into these creatures that dominated both land and sea for 250 million years. This is the final program in the phenomenally successful, multi award-winning Walking with...series.

The Dinosaur Game

SURVIVAL OR EXTINCTION

 

The unique concept of this Dinosaur Game sets it apart from other board games. It's NOT a trivia game! The Dinosaur Game-SURVIVAL OR EXTINCTION requires no previous knowledge of dinosaurs. Instead, the players learn as they play. Each player becomes a dinosaur, receives a description card that tells about your prehistoric self, such as whether you are a carnivore or herbivore, what habitat you live in and how you rate on various characteristics from intelligence to defenses. Your goal as a dinosaur is to SURVIVE by reaching the finish square first. To do this you must overcome obstacles such as Natural Disasters, Attacks from your dinosaur opponents and food shortages. The game uses an indirect learning style, which means that it is primarily fun and educational too. This game has it all!  For ages 5 and up with 2 play versions. Over 130 components including a DINO DIE!

$21.99

 

The Lost Jungle game has been renamed Dinosaur World however the game itself has not changed.
