How The Dinosaurs Ruled Earth - Dinosaur Evolution and Extinction Explained In this episode John is joined by Paleontologist Dr. Steve Brusatte, they journey back to a world of dinosaurs from when the Dinosaurs were the beneficiaries of the Permian mass extinction event caused by volcanic eruptions at the beginning of the Triassic period – then into the dominant array of species everyone recognizes today, T. Rex, Triceratops, Brontosaurus, and the Utah Raptor. They discuss the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, when thousands of Dinosaur species thrived, and feathered dinosaurs, the prehistoric ancestors of modern birds, emerged. The story continues to the end of the Cretaceous period. How big was a Tyrannosaurus? How intelligent could the Dinosaurs have become? Are modern Birds descendants of the Dinosaurs.
