In the late Cretaceous period of Earth's history, iguanodon Aladar
(voiced by D.B. Sweeney) is separated from his own species while
still inside his egg. He is taken in and brought up by lemurs Zini
and Plio, but when this adoptive family is all by wiped out by a
meteor shower, Aladar and his friends are forced to join a mixed
herd of dinosaurs who are migrating to a new nesting ground. This
tribe is led by the hard-headed Kron (Samuel E. Wright), whose
'survival of the fittest' approach clashes with Aladar's more
altruistic nature.
