Did they care for their young?

What was life like for baby dinosaurs?

These are some of the intriguing questions addressed in this informative program.

Cute and Feathery
This is a very good documentary about early dinosaurian developement. Top paleontologists discuss numerous aspects of eggs, egg laying, nests, parenthood and baby dinosaurs themselves. It is comprehensive and detailed for older viewers, yet not too heavy in scientific descriptions for younger viewers. All dinosaurs documentaries are mainly tageted to a younger audience, as is natural. This is no different, but the writing and direction keep it from being a pure kids's show. Computer and stop-motion animation help the audience see dinosaurs as they were. The Computer animation is not as good as it could be because the raptors have full feathery plumage, and the stop-motion is a bit jerky, but not horrendous. It is worth it. What makes this truly worth the price is the interviews with Dr. Robert Bakker. He is incredible.
