Permian-Triassic: The Great Dying & Rise of the First Dinosaurs | Documentary

About 252 million years ago, our planet went through the Permian-Triassic extinction, known as "The Great Dying," the deadliest mass extinction in Earth's history. Ecosystems fell apart, oceans were stripped of life, and the vast majority of species vanished forever. Yet from the ruins of that catastrophe, a new world began to take shape. The Triassic opened on a scarred and unstable Earth. The supercontinent Pangaea stretched across the globe, the climate swung to harsh extremes, and life was only beginning to recover. But in this hostile landscape, new ecosystems took hold, and among the survivors were the ancestors of the animals that would go on to rule the Mesozoic era. But..! What did Earth look like in the aftermath of its greatest extinction? How did life endure when whole ecosystems had collapsed? Why did the Triassic become the launching point for a new age of reptiles? And how did the first dinosaurs emerge in a world still healing from disaster?
