Life on our planet

a new look at dinosaurs and prehistoric life that once roamed our Earth
Dr Tom Fletcher
Book - 2023

"An unforgettable journey into our ancient past, containing powerful lessons to learn about our future. Today there are 20 million species on our planet. Yet what we see is just a snapshot in time. 99% of earth's inhabitants are lost to our deep past. The story of what happened to these lineages--their rise and their fall--is truly remarkable. Accompanying the ground-breaking Netflix series, Life on our Planet uses the latest technology to bring long-extinct creatures back to life. It tells the story of life's epic battle to conquer and survive on Earth, showing in a new light what's been lost to us, and how life's future is now being written by us. From ancient ocean worlds and plant life's first forays onto land, to the rise and fall of the dinosaurs and the devastation of the last Ice Age, this is a sweeping view of evolution, through five extinctions and, with the arrival of humans on earth, the beginning of the sixth..." -- Provided by the publisher.
