When strange bones are discovered in a muddy Kansas river bank, paleontologists set out to investigate a mystery buried in time. Through ultra-realistic computer animation, travel back into the Late Cretaceous, when the sea was dominated by giant marine reptiles. Follow a female Dolichorhynchops (a seal-like reptile) and her offspring through journeys that illustrate life in the sea during the Age of Dinosaurs. Live-action recreations of actual paleontological digs are intercut throughout, revealing the fascinating behind-the scenes science.
