TV scientist Ben Garrod presents the biggest extinction events
ever, told from the point of view of evolution's superstars, the
most incredible animals ever to swim, stalk, slither or walk our
planet. Whether you're 9 or 90, his unique exploration of the most
destructive, yet most creative, force in nature makes top level
science fun. Usually a species has 10 million years or so of
evolving, eating, chasing, playing, maybe doing homework, or even
going to the moon before it goes extinct. Lisowicia was
super-sized. Weighing in at 9 tonnes, it was one of the largest
animals roaming the planet during the Late Triassic. It was a kind
of cross between a reptile and a mammal, but not quite either! What
did Lisowicia eat, how and where did it live and what caused the
complete disappearance of this animal which lay undiscovered for
over 200 million years? 'Eye-opening science with striking artwork'
