Archosaur reptiles that dominated the Mesozoic Era. Characterized by upright stance with legs positioned under the body. Birds are living dinosaurs.
Flying reptiles that dominated the skies from Late Triassic to end of Cretaceous. First vertebrates to achieve powered flight.

Giant mammals that thrived during the Pleistocene epoch of the Cenozoic Era. Characterized by long fur and curved tusks, they were widely distributed across Eurasia and North America during the Ice Age. Mammoths are extinct relatives of elephants, surviving until about 10,000 years ago and are known to have coexisted with humans.
Prehistoric synapsids and relatives on the mammalian line (e.g. dicynodonts, cynodonts). Distinct from modern mammals in this encyclopedia.
Archosaur reptiles that have survived over 250 million years. Includes modern crocodiles and their prehistoric ancestors.
Marine arthropods that thrived during the Paleozoic Era. They dominated Earth's oceans for approximately 270 million years from the Cambrian period about 540 million years ago until the end of the Permian. Trilobites are among the most abundant arthropods in the fossil record and evolved into various sizes and forms, being important members of the Paleozoic marine ecosystem.
Primitive fish that thrived during the Paleozoic Era. They evolved into various forms from the first jawless fish (agnathans) to jawed fish (gnathostomes). Including coelacanths and placoderms, they became the ancestors of modern fish. Prehistoric fish show important stages in vertebrate evolution and laid the foundation for the transition to terrestrial vertebrates.
The first vertebrates to venture onto land during the Paleozoic Era. Amphibians with the ability to use both water and land were pioneers of vertebrate terrestrial expansion. Including Ichthyostega and Eryops, they show the intermediate stage of evolution from fish to reptiles. Prehistoric amphibians represent an important turning point in the evolutionary history of life on Earth.
Narrated by Morgan Freeman, 2026 Netflix documentary series. 165 million years of dinosaur history.
