All aboard [whistle blows] this program was made possible by. Contributions to your pbs station from viewers like you thank you [train whistle blows] dinosaur train [whistle blows] dinosaur train once upon a time there was a mom her name was mrs. Pteranodon sitting on her nest she heard a scratching and said. Oh, boy my eggs are hatching one by one her kids popped free baby pteranodons 1, 2, 3 ill name you tiny, shiny, and don. But tiny said. Wait theres one more, mom last little baby was a different size with teeth and a tail and big green eyes he didnt look anything like the rest what am i doing in a pteranodon nest . But dear, old mrs. Pteranodon said. Oh, this is your family, and im your mom. You may be different, but were all creatures. All dinosaurs have different features. Come on, buddy. Well take a vacation. Ill get us a ticket at pteranodon station. Well travel the world in sunshine and rain and meet all the species on the. Dinosaur train dinosaur train dinosaur train dinosaur train were gonna ride ride, ride, ride, ride [whistle blows] the dinosaur train [roaring] [captioning made possible by the jim henson company] and thats why i always stay upwind of a quetzalcoatlus. [laughing] rawk tell us another one, dad tell us a really scary one ooh about the scariest predator yeah. Tell about a predator. Uh, wait. Whats a predator again . Rawk a predator is an animal that hunts other animals for food. Oh. Yeah. Tell one of those. A really scary predator like a crocodilian. Wait. Are you sure you kids want to hear a story about a crocodilian . Whats so scary about a crocodilian . Whats so scary about them . They only eat pteranodons, don. They do . tell it, dad tell it ahem. Ok. Heh. Well, crocodilians are giant, meateating carnivores that hide in the water and catch creatures like pteranodons when we swoop down to the water to catch fish. Why . Well, we pteranodons have great features for diving down, and crocodilians have great features for snapping up at flying things like us. [gulp] [shudder] ill see you later, pteranodons. Im just kidding. And the one we pteranodons have to look out for the most of all, the biggest, longest, fiercest crocodilian lurking right here in the slimy swamps of the late cretaceous, that would be deinosuchus [insects buzz] [shudder] maybe we could take the dinosaur train and meet one. [gasp] meet one . Deinosuchus wouldnt want to meet us. They want to eat us yeah but, you guys, weve traveled all over the mesozoic and met tons of huge carnivorous dinosaurs, and after weve met them, they mostly turned out to be really nice. You know, shes right. Yes, but you always met those creatures with your mom or dad nearby to make sure you were safe. Well, sure, mom. We should all go. What . it would be fun, shiny, the ultimate tiny challenge, to meet the scariest predator of all and maybe even become friends. Tiny, why do you have to meet every single creature . Rawk its kind of my thing. Im not the biggest dinosaur in fact, im kind of tiny i dont have teeth or scary claws but it doesnt make me whiny whenever i meet someone new i march right up and what i do is say, hello, there nice to meet you my name is tiny ive met a lot of dinosaurs and some of them were scary and when i stand right next to them im kind of ordinary but if im friendly they are, too and when i say its nice to meet you then they say well, hey, the same to you its nice to meet you, tiny you know, tiny makes a good point. I agree. The best way to understand another creature, even your natural predator, would be to meet one. Really . You mean, we can go meet a deinosuchus . Absolutely. Ahem. With plenty of adult supervision. Tomorrow morning, well all go together on the dinosaur train. It will be a pteranodon Team Adventure and the ultimate tiny challenge [cheering] hooray. Tickets, tickets, please. Well, hello, pteranodon clan. Hello, mr. Conductor off to somewhere excideinosuchus swamp station . Rawk thats right, mr. Conductor. You do know what deinosuchus eat, dont you . Pteranodons. Yes, indeed. Among other things, deinosuchus are known to eat pteranodons. Whoa thats one big dinosaur. Actually, don, deinosuchus is not a dinosaur. Its whats called a freshwater reptile, and its name sounds like dinosaur, but deinosuchus actually means terrible crocodile. Look at all those huge teeth. Kind of like yours, huh, buddy . And like you, deinosuchus is a carnivore. It eats whatever meat it can find from land animals to fish to, well, pteranodons. Eek but how do they catch flying pteranodons . Oh, deinosuchus is a tricky hunter. It likes to lie very still right under the surface of the water like a log to surprise its prey. That is so cool. But im gonna look really closely at any logs i see today before i sit on them. Me, too rawk me, 3 excellent idea, kids. Mr. Conductor, do you know any deinosuchus . I do. Deana deinosuchus has lived at deinosuchus swamp for a long time and has grown to be one of the biggest examples of deinosuchus ive ever seen. In fact, shes longer than this passenger coach. I warn you, deana can be kind of crabby. You sure you want to meet this big predator . Yes or maybe we could do it some other time. Oh speaking of time, were here oh. Next stop, deinosuchus swamp station, deinosuchus swamp. Bbbbbbb now if were gonna meet this deinosuchus, well need to stick together as a team. Right in fact, pteranodons, ill come along with you just to make extra sure that youre safe. Theres a cliff that runs above the swamp, so we can talk to deana from a safe distance. Walk this way. [giggling] psst. Buddy, is that a deinosuchus . Uh, no. I think thats just a log. Ooh, ooh is that a deinosuchus . Nope. Just a log. Is that a dinosu no, don its just a log [grr] rawk [gulp] hello . Are you deana deinosuchus . Yes, i am. Wow isnt she amazing, shiny . Shiny . Rawk how did i get up here . Oh. Right. Just looking for local birds. Heh heh heh. Ok. The ultimate tiny challenge. Hello. My name is tiny pteranodon, and this is my family, and i believe you know mr. Conductor. Uh, hello, deana. Weve met. [grr] see, we like to travel all over the mesozoic on the dinosaur train, meeting all kinds of creatures, and, well, i realize that deinosuchus is a predator that [gulp] eats pteranodons, but i thought it would be nice to meet you and maybe we could even become friends. Become friends . Yeah but like you said, i eat pteranodons. Yeah, but maybe if you got to know us, youd like us, i mean, as friends, not lunch. Ha ha ha well, i never. No one that i hunt has ever offered to be my friend before. How nice of you. Well, sit down there on the edge of the cliff. We can get to know each other. So youre not going to eat us, right . Absolutely not. I just had a very large meal, not pteranodons by the way, some fish, so im not hungry. Why were you hiding in the water then . Well, its hot out, and crocodilians need to stay cool. I like to lie in the water almost completely covered like this, and also im actually kind of shy. Really . Sometimes i feel shy around strangers, too. See, deana and other crocodilians can float so that just their eyes and nostrils are above the water. That way, she can look around and breathe without being easily seen. Wow she swims with her feet and tail moving under the water, but it looks like theres hardly anything there. At first, we thought you were a log. No offense. None taken. Thats how i hunt. I lie very still like this. [gasp] what a lovely hello bakaaaah its ok she already had a big lunch oh, well. I cant blame him for being surprised. Me, neither. Rawk im going to look carefully at the next log i land on. Deana, thats amazing the way you can hide in plain sight. [grr] [gasp] [laughing] i notice that youre covered with toughlooking armor. Its kind of knobby like an ankylosaur. Youre right. It protects me from other crocodilians, and i notice that you are a t. Rex and have a mouthful of big teeth like me. Yep. T. Rexes have lots of teeth, too, and when they fall out, new ones just grow in right behind them. You know, mine do that, too. Hey. Open wide. Lets compare them. Ahh. [train whistle blows] you know, ive enjoyed this talk. Rarely do i get to see this many teeth, but thats the dinosaur train whistle, folks, and
