Ancient Earth: Dinosaurs of the Frozen Continent
Deep under Antarctica’s blanket of ice lies traces of a lost world of Dinosaurs and pre-historic creatures. Great forests once covered the now frozen Antarctic continent; gargantuan titanosaurs roamed its valleys, and proto-mammals darted through the undergrowth. It was also home to the largest carnivore of its day, the Cryolophosaurus – Antarctica’s T-Rex.
