70 million years ago, Cretaceous
This scene takes place just 5 million years before dinosaurs disappeared from the Earth forever. Two predators, Albertosaurus and Tyrannosaurus, fight over the duckbill Edmontosaurus, amid the plants that flourished then. Dinosaurs roamed the Earth for 140 million years, and Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the last of the line.
