The demise of the dinosaurs, 65 million years ago, did not leave the world empty. A succession of extraordinary creatures has since come and gone, leading to our own ancestors, and yet we know virtually nothing about them. These bizarre beasts were some of the most fascinating creatures ever to have inhabited our planet.

The award-winning team that brought us Walking With Dinosaurs now explores the rise of the mammals. The latest scientific findings, advanced computer graphics and strong natural history stories are combined as we return to the sights and sounds of extinct worlds... this time full of life you hardly knew existed.

Walking With Beasts takes you on a journey through time to distant worlds: from the hottest, wettest climate the earth has ever known to one of the coldest... the Ice Age. See the early forerunners of the whale (walking!), avoid the carnivorous pig the size of a rhino, and pity the horse the size of a cat, eaten by a bird the height of a man!

And we humans are not safe either... mighty saber-toothed cats with teeth the size of carving knives have a taste for our own ancestors!

Walking With Dinosaurs
In 1999 the BBC's Walking With Dinosaurs TV series changed the way we saw dinosaurs forever. This revolutionary show takes viewers right into the dinosaurs' world, showing them as if they were alive and filmed in the wild. Since then, the series has been seen by millions of people around the world and has won three Emmy awards. It brings to life the mystery and excitement of the age when these reptiles roamed our planet.

The makers of Walking With Dinosaurs returned to make two specials, The Ballad Of Big Al and Land Of Giants & The Giant Claw to continue to delight fans of the original series.

The Ballad of Big Al
Years ago, an amazing fossil was unearthed in Wyoming USA. Not only were the bones they found those of a dinosaur 'Big Al', but the skeleton of this creature was very nearly complete. The first programme follows his life – a 15-year story of a lone battle against formidable prey and voracious predators, whilst the second programme traces the scientific evidence of Big Al.

Land of Giants & The Giant Claw
In Land of Giants we join the adventuring zoologist, Nigel Marven as he visits the Argentinean landscape of 100 million years ago to attempt to see the biggest land predator bring down the biggest land prey, but will he succeed? In The Giant Claw Nigel travels back 75 million years to Mongolia, to track down the owner of the largest claws ever discovered. Negotiating the hazards of the Cretaceous is no walk in the park - will he live to discover the true nature of his quarry?
