About this listen

With such huge diversity in both form and habits, what is it that makes a dinosaur distinct from a crocodile or a lizard?

Ben explores the stores in London’s Natural History Museum to meet the earliest known dinosaur and learns of the cataclysmic events that came about at the dawn of this incredible group of animals.

Thoroughly absorbing and interesting. Like The Living Planet for dinosaurs brought to life for the ears.

I loved this series. It was fun, interesting, and easy to understand. Dean’s voice is clear and warm. He interviewed some excellent experts like Dean Lomax and Paul Barrett to name just a couple. I will be listening to Oceans next.
