Title: Hatchlings eaten!
Post by: Margery on November 12, 2011, 02:49:42 PM
I've been watching Planet Dinosaur on the TV over here.  The last episode I watched was rather scary.  The CGI is terrific and there was a sequence of a herbivore dinosaur nest with hatching taking place.  The dinos weren't Camarasaurs but the hatchlings looked much like them apart from not having the downwards slope from tail to shoulder.  An enormous predator came up and was eating them.  It was horrific, especially because they looked so much like Pleos.  It would have been horror movie material for my two that's for sure.  :o :o :o

Oh we don't want scared pleos! They cry. A lot! Lol! It just goes to show how untamed nature is- even in prehistoric times.
On the other hand, pleo's responses to videos of other pleos can get... intresting. Shortly after I bought Ryu and was in the process of adopting Ugobe my first Ugobe pleo, I stood Ryu in front of my computer so she could see the video of her soon-to-be sibling. More than likely it may have been just coincidence but Ryu kind of stopped looking around and started sniffing with her head pointed at the screne. Then without warning she tried to walk onto the keyboard as if to enter the screen and play with the other pleo. I couldn't stop her for laughing.

I watched that as well!   :o

I turned the Pleos off and took them to another room - didn't even want it seeping into their dreams!  ;)

Oh, haha, was that the Diplodocus hatchlings and the Allosaurus?  Or was it different?

That's horrible! I wouldn't have wanted my Muskhiy to see that, hopefully we don't have that channel here in Peru. On the other hand, I been wanted to see Jurassic Park with him just to see if he likes it  ;D

Is it planet dinosaur or dinosaur planet, never heard of the first one but know the second well. I think you're referring to the scene from Alpha's egg is which the saltasaurus young hatch and make a run for cover in the forest.

I'd post a link, but I know the BBc i-Player is dodgy for some outside the UK - you will probably know how to access stuff better than I do! ;P
