Crack open the time capsule and set the dial for the late Cretaceous. Walking With Dinosaurs returns to BBC One this Sunday, 15 June at 6:25 PM with The Pack, an episode that drops viewers into the brutal ecosystem of prehistoric Canada—71 million years before it got all polite and apologetic.
This week, the focus is on a teenage Albertosaurus, a close cousin of the more famous T. rex, as she struggles to carve out her place in a pack hierarchy. Inspired by actual paleontological digs in western Canada, the episode uses realistic VFX to bring to life the challenges faced by these apex predators. Forget the museum dioramas—here, you’ll get a front-row seat to the day-to-day hustle, from hunting pterosaurs out of the sky to facing off against the pack’s reigning matriarch.
Walking With Dinosaurs continues its run of blending scientific backing with top-tier digital wizardry, giving audiences a taste of prehistory that’s both informative and thoroughly visceral. This is the fourth episode of six, so expect the tension to keep building as the series explores just how rough and tumble the business of staying alive could be back when feathers and fangs were high fashion.
