Join Dennis M. Robertson on a driving holiday journey to five fascinating and distinctly different, easily accessible sites in the United States and Canada where bones of prehistoric animals lay partially entombed in death beds within their natural habitat. The bones reveal secrets of how and when these animals lived, evolved and died.
The period of evolutionary history showcased by bones in these sites include Ice-Age animals, pre-Ice-Age mammals that roamed Nebraska millions of years ago and Dinosaurs from the era preceding the asteroid collision that caused the mass extinction 65 million years ago.
