The Middle Miocene of Patagonia, Argentina. A warm environment with open areas, few trees, and covered by low vegetation.
A land full of exquisite animals, many living under the terror of the large predatory bird Kelenken.

A valley in Wyoming, USA, during the Eocene. The scene shows not only creatures known directly from the Bridger Formation, but also some "visitors" based on fossils from other nearby Formations of equivalent age to help visualizing the diverse fauna and flora of this time and place.

The reversed wings might have been tempting to "fix" (I can imagine a version with 2-3 fingers or spikes pointing forward to fake the silhouette), but for a creature full of fantasy and wonder, it was really worth keeping such unusual detail. Their folded shape when the dragon walks is quite cool!

To see Prehistoric Planet return, and even with a new theme, is such a joy! I'm eager to know and see the full animal lineup!
