'Prehistorica' Explained | Dinosaur Park (1x33)

Air date: Oct 22, 2021

What would a responsibly run park of resurrected dinosaurs look like? A tour of Joshua Dunlop’s fictional project ‘Prehistorica.’ Bringing back dinosaurs would probably end in an… unfortunate outcome, as the Jurassic Park franchise has shown us countless times. But I can’t deny, I’ve still always been interested in the concept of a responsibly-run prehistoric reserve where nothing goes wrong and the dinosaurs don’t eat you. That’s the basic concept behind the fictional park of Prehistorica, a biological nature preserve where resurrected dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals are treated with care and the fences actually work.
