*** The ''Allosaurus'' is the worst offender of this. Its head is way too small, it lacks the head crests that it's known for having, it's incredibly skinny, its fingers are too small, and it has very incorrect feet.

* MeekMesozoicMammal: The entire documentary shows how tiny mammals evolved and developed in the shadow of the dinosaurs, either as prey or utterly beneath the notice of the reptilian giants. Even ''Repenomamus'', a relatively large Mesozoic mammal and shown as a predator of dinosaur hatchlings, is depicted being quickly killed and eaten by a pack of ''Dilong''.
