Walking with Dinosaurs (2025)

After Walking with Dinosaurs (2025) is done, so what episode ideas you could think up for a walking with beasts reboot???

Episode titles and descriptions

Episode 1: “The Orphan"

Sixty-six million years ago, an orphaned baby Triceratops roamed the lush world of Laramidia, alone and vulnerable. Stalked by the fearsome Tyrannosaurus Rex, the youngster relied on her wits and diminutive size to survive. Today, paleontologists in Montana are uncovering her fossils, allowing us to imagine her life and the dangers she faced. Stunning VFX recreate her encounters, from escaping a giant Pterosaur to a heart-stopping face-off with T. rex, bringing her story vividly to life.

Episode 2: "The River Dragon"

North Africa, 100 million years ago, a Spinosaurus father must embark on a dangerous voyage to feed his babies. To reach his destination he must lead his young family across one of the deadliest environments in Earth’s history: a land crawling with ferocious predators. At the end of their journey, an extraordinary feast awaits – if he can run the gauntlet without his babies becoming someone else’s meal.

Episode 3: "Band Of Brothers"

Utah, 130 million years ago, a band of armored dinosaurs battle to reach adulthood, pursued by a group of Utahraptors: one of the most formidable predators that’s ever lived. It’s a deadly game of cat and mouse that pits heavy armor against vicious claws and lethal cunning. A life-and-death struggle that builds to a final showdown amongst the flames of a burning forest.

Episode 4: "The Pack"

Seventy-one million years ago lived a teenage Albertosaurus, a faster, nimbler relative of T. rex. She must earn her place in a deadly, ferocious pack or risk starvation. Today, paleontologists in Western Canada are unearthing her remains, allowing us to imagine her story. Based on real-world evidence, stunning VFX recreate her encounters, from hunting pterosaurs, to fighting the dominant matriarch and battling for survival in the brutal late Cretaceous world.

Episode 5: "Enemies Assemble"

Evidence from a dramatic discovery in Canada reveals the epic story of one of the largest dinosaur herds that ever lived, the Pachyrhinosaurus and one of its youngest members. To find enough food to survive, this close relative of Triceratops must embark on a grueling 400-mile migration across hostile wilderness. On their trail is the vicious, pack-hunting Gorgosaurus. But the greatest threat of all awaits at the end of their journey… a cataclysmic storm that threatens the herd’s very survival.

Episode 6: "Island of Giants"

Island of Giants tells the tale of one of the largest dinosaurs ever to walk the earth, a colossal long-necked Lusotitan. Living 150 million years ago on an island known as the Iberian Mesta, now Portugal, this 25-meter-long titan dwarfs every other dinosaur in the region. Yet his intimidating size is only part of the story. His ultimate goal is to win over a female and secure his legacy. It’s a quest that will see him embark on an epic journey as he risks his life for love.

So only 8 creatures are split up by generations, but I don’t get why. The only one that makes sense to me is T.rex. What dictates a generation? Why do Giga and Lio get split up but not Utahraptor or Quetzal? And most importantly, how does the 2025 documentary play into this? Perhaps the former admins Lythronax and Collector1 know?

Recently, we have gotten our first trailer for Walking with Dinosaurs 2025, which showcases an array of species. However, I believe that there are many species not already shown. Here are the species that are confirmed, as well as ones I believe will appear, in the first two episodes.

Episode I: The Lourinhã Formation

Confirmed

• Lusotitan: This new Sauropod will be the main focus of the episode, as one of them attempt to find a mate. They will be showcased with a speculative inflatable air sac on their crest, similar to the Prehistoric Planet Dreadnoughtus.

Others

• Allosaurus: I doubt that Lusotitan will be the only species to appear in the episode. I reckon we will see the return of Allosaurus, as it was an iconic species from the original series, and also one of the large theropods of the formation. We will have at least one carnivore, as Thomas Holtz stated, "I mean **something** has to be a menace to the Lusotitan". Additionally, we have an image of a theropod eye with the reflection of a Lusotitan in it.

• Miragaia/Dacentrurus: As this is the only Jurassic Episode, I reckon they will try to show off as much varied Jurassic fauna as possible, and what better species to show than a Stegosaur?

• Dryosaurus: Another dinosaur from the original series I think may return is Dryosaurus, as it could showcase diversity in the ecosystem.

• Torvosaurus: Torvosaurus has become fairly popular recently, so I reckon that there is a fair chance of it appearing. Besides, it could potentially fight an Allosaurus for the Lusotitan. Additionally, the comment that Holtz replied to was talking about Torvosaurus.

Episode II: Cedar Mountain Formation

Confirmed

• Utahraptor: It looks like Utahraptor and Gastonia are going to be the main dinosaurs in this episode. The Utahraptors are depicted accurately with feathers, and personally I really like their colour schemes.

• Gastonia: One of my favourite Ankylosaurs finally makes an appearance. There will at some point be a fight between two Gastonias, and later a fight between one and a Utahraptor.

• Planicoxa: This Iguanodont is known to be making a brief appearance in this episode, making it one of two Ornithopods confirmed for the series.

Others

• Falcarius: I doubt many other species will appear in this episode. Falcarius is a bizarre early Therizinosaur, and I feel like they might appear to show off the strange animals that evolved in the early Cretaceous.

It's a good thing that the 2025 reboot of Walking with dinosaurs will be airing on pbs kids cause, we all know what happened at Discovery.
