History YMMV / XenozoicTales

* ExecutiveMeddling: According to Schultz himself, another reason why the cartoon died early. The suits wanted it to be a [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 Turtle]]-killer, and Nelvana was trying to break away from making cartoons made for older audiences at the same time, leading to problems. And then there were concerns over adding Hannah to TheMerch, since the suits thought that female characters belonged in [[{{Franchise/Barbie}} the pink aisle]] only.

** [[EvilPoacher Hammer Terhune]], who works for [[CorruptPolitician Governor Scharnhorst]], one of the leaders of the City in the Sea--New York City AfterTheEnd--tries to discredit [[NatureHero Jack Tenrec]]'s philosophy of promoting a balance between humans and nature. To do this, Hammer uses a sonic transmitter to torment a T-Rex and have it attack nearby settlements. Hammer also tries to discredit Tenrec by trying to cause a bunch of Triceratops to stampede and kill people in a mining town. Unhappy with taking orders from Scharnhorst, Hammer hijacks a [[KillSat killer satellite]] and plans to use it to [[TheStarscream destroy the City in the Sea]], so that he can take over. Later Hammer discovers a boy who can control dinosaurs and wants to use him in his poaching business. To test the boy's skills, Hammer [[WouldHurtAChild throws him into a pit with a hungry raptor and sees if he can control it]]. In his final appearance, Hammer uses some stolen dynamite to try to flush out some dinosaurs, but this causes a wildfire instead. The wildfire is heading towards some gas wells Scharnhorst recently constructed and if the fire reaches the wells, it will cause an explosion that will devastate the jungle, resulting in mass starvation for the City in the Sea. Scharnhorst orders [[EnemyMine Hammer to work with Tenrec to fix this problem]], by helping Tenrec use nitroglycerin to create a barrier between the fire and the wells. However, Hammer intents to kill Tenrec instead and steal the nitroglycerin for himself, not caring that his actions have endangered millions of lives.
