There is something missing from are world, the amazing animals, that time has left behind.
But what if we could bring them back? What if extinction didnt have to be forever?
We're going back in time on a safari with a difference, as wildlife adventure Nigel Marvin, plunges into pre-history, to rescue creatures on the brink of extinction, his plan is to bring them back to the safety of the presant.
And give them a second chance.
This time Nigel and Suzanne travel back to the Carboniferous Period to try and track down some of the earth's first Reptiles.
Welcome back to the ultimate wildlife sanctuary.
Welcome to Prehistoric Park!
Prehistoric Park is a Breeding Sanctuary for extinct animals, to try and rebuild there popluation on earth. However some creatures are a bit more dedicated to breeding than others.
"Good, good" Suzanne said. Suzanne was stood in her Vet's Surgery, just in front of her a large creature which was on the operating board. A Smilodon.
"This is good, from the looks she is Pregnant again." Suzanne said peforming a Pregnancy Scan on the unconscios creature. "This we be her third litter, her second in the park." Suzanne said. "By the looks she will be haveing three cubs, which is unsual in most Big moden day cats." Suzanne said.
Suzanne then backed away from the creature and walked towards a large machine on the other side of the room. "Yep, she's haveing three cubs." Suzanne said smiling. "Hopefully when these three are born, the two cubs we all ready have wont attack them if we put them in the same Paddock." Suzanne said. "If that works then we may be able to get a pride of Saber-tooth Tigers at the park." Suzanne said.
Suddenly the door opened behind her. "Suzanne, how is she?" Nigel asked entering. "Oh, she's doing fine. We have some good news." Suzanne said. "And what would that be?" Nigel asked smiling. "She''s going to have three cubs, which is very unsual in moden day cats." Suzanne told him.
"Brilliant." Nigel said approching the Smilodon on the table. "And hopefully the two cubs we already have wont attack them if we put them in the same Paddock." Suzanne said. "Thats great Suzanne, how can you be sur-" Nigel was cut off by the machine Suzanne was stood next to. The machine made a few rumbleing noise's and then a sheet of paper popped out. "Ah." Nigel said looking at the Paper. The Paper clearly showed three cubs inside of the adult Smilodon.
Bob meanwhile, is dealing with the unsual demands of looking after so many extinct creatures.
"I hate him" Bob said. Bob was sat on a bench just outside of the Troodon Paddock. The Troodon was slowly walking next to the fence, watching Bob.
"He's too smart, I swear he's gonna be the death of me." Bob said watching the creature. "As i just said he's too smart, he's broken out 3 more times after Nigel caught the Quetzalcoatlus and the Stomatosuchus. Those claw's he has are perfect for climbing." Bob said pointing at the creature.
"He's caused more troble in the Park than the Titanosaurs's, well that might be exaggerateing" Bob said.
"He's smart" Bob said. "Think of him as one of those Velociraptors out of Jurassic Park. Only with smaller claws." Bob said.
Suddenly the Troodon turned to Bob and let out a bark. It then jumped on one of the wooden post's and climbed up the Paddock fence. "HAY! HAY! STOP THAT!" Bob said jumping up and running towards the Paddock. By the time Bob had reached the Paddock the Troodon had reached the top of the wooden pole. The Troodon looked down at Bob. It let out a bark and leaped down onto Bob.
"AAHHH, GET IT OFF!" Bob shouted as the Troodon bit and clawed his face. The creature dug its claws into Bobs shoulder while its mouth bite his head. Bob screamed continued to hit the creature in its sides. The creatue used its hand claws to stratch Bobs ears. Suddenly two people ran out from behind the camera and began hitting the Troodon. The Troodon bit one of the bloke's hand, but still the two continued to hit the creature.
Finally the creature pulled its claws out of Bob, let out a bark and jumped off Bob.
"Bob, Bob are you OK?" One of the two men asked. Bob had a large bloody gash on his shoulder and red scratch's all over his face. "Were, were is it?" Bob asked.
Unaware of Bob's injury's, Nigel is planning his next adventure.
"So, Nigel were you off to this time?" Suzanne asked. Suzanne was sat on a table in Nigel's Bungalow and Nigel was at behind his desk.
"Well, My mission is the catch this-" Nigel said. Nigel pulled out a picture from his desk draw. It showed a small Lizard, with a light green body and a orange tail. "- a Petrolacosaurus! One of the first Lizards to ever walk the earth! And to find it Im going back to the worldest greatest swam, The Carboniferous." Nigel said handing the picture to Suzanne.
"Thats amazing, but, Nigel Can I ask you something?" Suzanne said putting the picture down.
"What is it?" Nigel asked.
"Well, you know how Jim is on Vacation? Yeah well, I was kinda hopeing that...I could come with you?" Suzanne asked nervously. "Oh, um, yeah sure you can!" Nigel said smiling. "Thanks all go get my stuff!" Suzanne said happily and giving Nigel a Hug. Suzanne then stood up and left the room.
"So, I'll be going to a very big river that stretched the whole way through the USA. And hopefully there I should be able to see some Petrolacosaurus." Nigel said into the camera smiling.
As Suzanne is packing her stuff, she gets a rather Unexpected Suprise.
Suzanne was stood in her Vets Surgery, talking to Sarah.
"So, Sarah, just to be clear. When the Smilodon begins to wake up, call Bob and tell him to bring the truck, you then open the garadge door and let the cat walk out into the truck, got it?" Suzanne asked. "Yep" Sarah said.
Sudddenly the door was flung open and three People ran in carrying a Person between them. "Bob! Oh My Goddness!" Suzanne said. Sarah ran off screen and came back pushing a table with wheels.
"Bob, what happend?" Suzanne asked the man. "Its no use. He's unconscious. The Troodon escaped and attacked him." One of the men said lifting Bob onto the table.
"Sarah, you're a Doctor, Im just a vet, do you think you could handle this?" Suzanne asked Sarah.
"Sure, you go I'll let you know if anything go's wronge." Sarah said.
"Thanks, good luck." Suzanne said leaving the room.
Soon Nigel and Suzanne were ready to rescue one of the earths first reptiles.
Nigel, Suzanne and the Jeep were just next to the Portal. "Ok Suzanne ready to go?" Nigel asked her, getting into the drivers seat. "Yep" Suzanne said getting into the passenger seat.
"But, uh, Nigel, why do we have a boat on the top off the Jeep?" Suzanne asked. On the Top of the Jeep was a Speed Boat. "Oh, we are going to the 'Megalos River' in search of the Lizard" Nigel said turning on the engine. "Oh, ok" Suzanne said.
"Carboniferous, here I come Again!" Nigel said makeing the Jeep drive through the Portal.
Bob meanwhile, isnt have as such luck.
"How's he's pulse?" Sarah asked. Sarah and another blonde girl were in the Vet's Surgery. The Smilodon was gone and Bob was on the table. "65 beats a mintue, a bit slow." The girl said. "What are we gonna do?" The girl asked. "Patch up that wound on his shoulder and put some plasters on thoses cuts." Sarah said.
"I see, but what about the Troodon?" Sarah asked. "Call Bill, tell him and Ben to drop what they are doing and start looking for it." Sarah said.
Sarah's assistant then walked out of the room. "Oh No, Sophie! You might want to come look at this!" Sarah said looking at a compture monitor, next to Bob.
Nigel meanwhile, has begun his Adventure, and is enjoying it.
"This is brilliant, what a sight to begin with!" Nigel said. Nigel, Suzanne and the Camera man were in the Speed boat, travleing down a river. "Theres a small family of Amphibians moveing through the river over there." Nigel said pointing east. Not too far away from the boat were three snake-like creature swimming in the shallow water.
"I cant be sure but I think there called Phlegethontia, not a common name. I would love to get some of these back to the park, but like the 'Swam Monster' I saw last time I came here, I cant becasue there just is just no safe way to transport them back to the-" Nigel was cut of when a Meganura flew down over his head. "Woah! What a wonderful creature!" Nigel said as the Dragonfly flew off into the forest.
Nigel looked back to the Phlegethontia's, only to see that they were gone. "Suzanne, keep an eye on the shore, we hopefully might be able to spot some Petrolacosaurus coming down for a drink." Nigel said pointing to the shore.
"Petrolacosaurus were common in the Carboniferous so hopeflully with the camera, mine and Suzanne's eyes we should be able to spot some of the Lizards." Nigel said into the camera.
"Suzanne look!" Nigel said pointing ahead of them. Just ahead of the was a large group of Giant Dragonflys.
"The 'Megalos River' is connected to the ocean, which makes it a great feeding place for the Meganura, becasue of the small fish that travle up it. Just like bears and Sammon." Nigel said. "Look you can see one there!" Nigel said pointing ahead of them again. A big Meganura flew down from a tree and towards the water surface, were it caught a fish. "This is great to watch Birds do this in the Twenty-first centry, but we are watching Giant Dragonflys do it!" Nigel said.
"This is a great hunting habitat for all types of creatures, but mainly Amphibians." Nigel said as a small Meganura flew past his head.
Back at the Park, Bob isnt doing so well
"This is getting bad, Bob lost a lot of blood. And his heart beat has lowered to 50 beats a mintue" Sarah said into the camera. Bob was lying down on the table, he had many wires connected to his chest.
"If his heart rate gets any lower we might have to call for a helicoptor to take him to hospital. This is really getting dangeurs. I hate to say this but even if he does make it out of this alive, he will be in no state to work for many years." Sarah said.
"Really it was best that Suzanne has gone with Nigel, she wouldnt now what to do anyway. She's a vet, but Im a trained doctor. But not trained enough to do shoulder surgry, becase if I mess something up then Bob may become paralysed in his arm." Sarah said pointing to the huge gash on Bob's shoulder.
"Luckly if Bob makes it through the night then he should make a good recovery" Sarah said.
The Megalos River is one of the Biggest Rivers ever, and therefore has a lot of wildlife. But just not the type Nigel is looking for.
"Ok, we have been here a few hours now and all we have seen are Amphibians and Dragonflys." Nigel said. The sun was just setting, makeing the sky orange. Nigel and Suzanne were both still in the boat.
"Wait, there some thing there!" Nigel shouted standing up in the boat. "Its a Lizard, I cant tell if its a Petrolacosaurus, but Im gonna go take a look." Nigel said. On the river shore was a very large forest, coming out of it was a small Lizard .
Nigel then walked to the back of the boat and turned it, so it was heading towards the shore. Finally the boat slowed and Nigel and Suzanne arived at the shore, a couple of feet away from the lizard.
"It can smell us, but it has never seen a mammel before, they havent evolved yet, Im gonna try and get a bit closer" Nigel said slowly walking along the shore, with Suzanne just behind him. The shore was very sandy and smiliar to a small beach. The creature was light orange with a green tail.
"ARRGGH" Nigel shouted jumping down. Nigel jumped down ontop of the Lizard. "Argh, this truely is a brilliant creature!" Nigel said struggleing with the Lizard. Nigel stood up holding the creature in his arms.
"Its, its not a Petrolacosaurus, but his is stuggleing!" Nigel said as to creature was thrashing about in his hands.
"In fact Im not sure what it is! But, I thing its a Paleothyris!" Nigel said as the creature tail hit him in his face. "I have always want- AHH." Nigel said as the creature bite his thumb. "Dont do that again." Nigel said laughing.
"You Ok Nigel?" Suzanne asked. "Yeah, Im fine its this- wooaaahh!" Nigel was cut off when the creature wacked its tail into the camera. "She real is struggleing!" Nigel said.
"OH! AHH!" Nigel said as the creature bit his arm again. But this time it didnt let go. The creature kept Nigel's arm inside its mouth. "Its ok, she calming down now, but this is actually really hurting!" Nigel said as the creatures teeth sunk deeper and deeper into his arms. "Oh please dont do that! Dear me!" Nigel said as blood began pouring ot of his arm. "Its hard to belive that such a beautie could casue so much damage. Dear me, this is really hurting now!" Nigel said as more blood came out of his arm.
"Its ok girl, I'll put you down soon. I dont want to pull you away from me, now do I ?" Nigel said as the creature continued to bite. Soon Nigels arm was covered in blood from his fingertips to his elbow. "This is very pain full, this creature must be a bit venomus. Please let go. Please let go Mr. Lizard." Nigel said as his blood reached the bottom of his arm and began dripping onto the sand.
After a moment of silence Nigel finally spoke.
"The probalm now is getting her off." Nigel said as the creatures teeth reached as far as they could get into Nigels arm. Nigel laughed. "I dont want to pull to hard, it could damage its teeth. I just need her to let me go, so I can-" Nigel was cut off when the creature finally realesed his arm. "Ah, there we go!" Nigel said smiling.
"Thank you very much ." Nigel said to the creature in his arms.
"Suzanne, will you go get the Pet Carrier?" Nigel asked Suzanne. "Sure." Suzanne said and dissappered of the screen. She returned a moment later with a Pet Carrier.
"Here you go." Suzanne said opeing the Pet Carrier for Nigel. "Thanks" Nigel said dropping the Lizard into the Pet carrier.
"My God! Nigel, are you ok?" Suzanne said putting the Pet Carrier on the ground. "Im fine, Im fine." Nigel said as Suzanne took Nigels arm and got a closer look at his wound. "Honesly Suzanne, Im fine." Nigel said. "Nigel, you look like you are about to pass-out any mintue." The camera man said zooming in on the large bite marks on Nigels arm.
"Im fine, honestly. Its like a Badge of Courage for Wildlife Presenters." Nigel said as Suzanne took a bandage out from her pocket and begun rapping his arm up in it. "Nigel mate, you look like you should sit down." The camera man said. Nigels face was turning pure white. "Im fine" Nigel said happiely. "Nigel he's right, you go lie down in the boat." Suzanne told him. "No, Suzanne really Im fine, And I need to take the Paleothyris back to the Jeep." Nigel said picking up the Pet Carrier.
"No, no, no, no, I'll take it to the car you go lie down. The car is only a couple of miles behind us. I'll take the Paleothyris down there and drive it back up." Suzanne said takeing the Pet Carrier off him. "Nigel, my medical kit is in the Jeep. You realise that the Paleothyris could have been venomus." Suzanne told him.
"Ok, you go, but be careful." Nigel said.
Meanwhile back at the Park, Nigel isnt the only one haveing Lizard Problam.
Bill and Ben (Not the flowerpot men) were stood behind a large bush, holding a blanket. "Ready, Set, GO!" They both said at the same time. Both of them jumped out from behind the bush, holding the blanket out and tackled the thing closest to them. "DAMN!" Ben and Bill said as they hit the ground.
"We, we have been tracking the Troodon for about 3 hours now, we could have sworn we had him this time." Bill said into the camera. "Bill, he's there!" Ben said pointing towards a tree a couple of feet away from them.
Just behind the tree, was the Troodon. "Ben, you stay here, I'll get him." Bill said standing up. Bill opened up the blanket infront of him and charged at Troodon. The Troodon, was faceing the other way. "Gotta ya!" Bill shouted as he tackled the Troodon to the ground. Bill had the creatures neck in one hand and his other hand around its waist. "Ben! Ben! I got him!" Bill shouted.
"Finally, its getting dark." Ben said approching him. The Troodon was struggling alot, but Bill was stronger. "Pass, pass me the dart!" Bill said trying not to let go of the Troodon. Ben passed Bill a dart. Bill stabed the dart into the creatures leg. Within a couple of seconds the Troodon fell unconscious.
"Well done mate" Ben said to Bill. Bill lay the creature on the floor and stood up. "Thanks, I'll stay here with the Troodon while you go get the Jeep." Bill said. "Ok. Oh remember, if you get cold, you can always snuggle up with the Troodon." Ben said pointing towards the Unconscious Troodon covered in a blanket. "Very funny, now go get the Jeep." Bill said.
The next moring the Troodon is back in its Paddock, for now. Meanwhile Nigel and Suzanne are continueing there search for the Petrolacosaurus.
"Morin!" Nigel said. Nigel was sat in the drivers seat of his Jeep. In the back of the Jeep Suzanne was still asleep. "Suzanne, Suzanne." Nigel said laughing. "Suzanne" Nigel said again pokeing her in the arm. Suddenly Nigel slammed on the horn. "AHH." Suzanne said as she shot up from her sleep. "Morin" Nigel laughed. "Ah, Moring" Suzanne said yawning. "So, Nigel how do you feel?" Suzanne asked him pointing to his arm. "I feel fine Suzanne." Nigel told her.
Nigel then opened the door of the Jeep and climbed out. The Jeep was parked on the shore line of the river, at the same area Nigel was bitten. The back door of the Jeep opened and Suzanne climbed out.
"So, Nigel should we start searching for the Petrolacosaurus now? Or wait till later?" Suzanne asked him.
"Well, I suppose the earlier we start the earlier we can catch the Petrolacosaurus and get back to the park." Nigel said looking at the river. Many Amphibians were swiming around in the river. "Suzanne look!" Nigel said point at the many Amphibians swiming in the water. "Oh, thats good" Suzanne said looking at some of the creatures reaching the surface.
"I reckon we should -WOAH!" Nigel was cut off when a small Phlegethontia erupted out of the forest and attached itself to Nigels leg. The eel-like creature raped itself around Nigel left leg. "Oh, will you look at that." Nigel said looking at the creature rapped around his leg. "Come here" Nigel said picking up the creature. Nigel put his hand behind the creatures neck and put the rest of its body in his other arm.
"Hello there sweet heart." Nigel said siting down on the bonet of the Jeep. "Oh dear, just look at those eye's!" Nigel said. The creatre had very large yellow eyes and a light pink body. "Suzanne, do me a favore, see that bucket in the back of the Jeep?" Nigel asked her. "Yep" Suzanne said getting into the Jeep. "Fill it up with water and bring it here will you?" Nigel asked her. Suzanne then filled the bucket up with water from the river and put it next to Nigel. "Thats a good girl" Nigel said lowering the Prehistoric Amphibian into the bucket.
"I know I should'nt be doing this, Bob's gona have a fit when he finds out I brought this back." Nigel said as the Amphibian was dropped into the bucket. "Now this one, she's a young female, thats why she can fit in there, if she was fully grown there would be no way she could fit in." Nigel said pointing to the Phlegethontia in the bucket.
"What worry's me is, the reason she attached herself to me was becasue something was chaseing her." Nigel said pointing towards the forest, were the Phlegethontia had just came from.
"Nigel, you should look at this." Suzanne said from the other side of car. "All right, hold on!" Nigel shouted to her. Nigel took out a plastic lid and put it ontop of the bucket, he then took out a pen and poked three air holes in the lid. Nigel then jumped down from the car and went round to were Suzanne was standing.
Suzanne was stood in the shallow water looking through some binoculars. "What is it?" Nigel asked approching her. "Look." Suzanne said passing him the bonculars.
Nigel looked through the binoculars. "Thats it" Nigel said. The camera zoomed in on were Nigel was looking and saw a small Lizard walking along the shoreline. The creature was green with dark green dots, and a orange tail. "Thats it, Thats what were after, Petrolacosaurus." Nigel said.
Back at the Park, Sarah has some news about Bob.
"Sarah, what happened?" Bob asked. Bob was sat in a hospital bed, with Sarah sat on a chair next to him.
"Well, long story short, You were attacked by the Troodon, I did as much as I could to help you, and right now you are in the recovery room." Sarah said. "Oh my giddy ant! How is the Park ?, What happened to the Troodon ?, Were is Suzanne?" Bob asked.
"Calm down Bob! The Park is fine. Bill and Ben caught the Troodon and are currently building a moat around the outside of its Paddock and Suzanne is with Nigel in the Carboniferous." Sarah said. Bob had a odd look on his face. "The Flower Pot men caught the Troodon?" Bob asked. "No, The workers" Sarah said laughing. "Oh, sorry, I guess I havent recovered enought yet." Bob said lieing back down.
Meanwhile Nigel and Suzanne were hot on the trail of the Petrolacosaurus.
"Look!" Nigel Marven shouted. He was running across a large field with long grass and a river flowing through it.
"Look! He's there!" Nigel shouted pointing ahead of him. Just ahead of Nigel was a lizard was green with dark green dots, and a orange tail running away from him. The small Lizard soon came across a large tree, about 50 feet tall and began climbing it. "AH!" Nigel shouted. Nigel then grapped the Lizard before it could get to high.
"Im not sure, not sure who has go who here." Nigel said. The Lizard had attached it self to Nigel hair. "Ouch, he's pulling, pulling my hair". Nigel said. Nigel had both of his hands rapped around the creature's waist. The Lizard meanwhile had its claws dug into Nigel hair. "I swear, every Carboniferous Lizard is trying to hurt me." Nigel said as the creature pulled out some of Nigel's hair.
"Just need to - ah - oh- ahh thats better." Nigel said as the creature let go of his hair.
"This is it! Finally Petrolacosaurus! Just look at those claws!" Nigel said. Nigel had his arm rapped around the creatures neck, while is hand was supporting its back legs.
"Just look at them! There perfect for climing up big trees like this-" Nigel pointed to the Tree the creature had just tryed to climb "- But of course its the teeth that you have to watch out for." Nigel said. "The jaws of this one creature will evolve into the Jaws of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. And for all we now, This big guy here, could be Terrance and Maitlada's Great-Great-Great Grand Father." Nigel said.
"If the teeth of this creature is anything like the Paleothyris's then thats all the more reason to avoid it." Nigel said was the creature began to struggle. "Easy there Boy" Nigel said to the stuggleing beast.
"This creature will evolve into many creatures. Dinosaurus, Birds and in the Ice Age there is a Giant Lizard Speices with the exact Body structure of this called 'Megalaina'. It is truely amazing to be face to face with this creature. Just think, the next Lizard you see, could be related to this creature- WOAH - easy mate." Nigel said.
"Plus he's in good shape to! Most moden-day Lizard's his size are rarely this stronge." Nigel said pointing to the musels in its leg.
"Suzanne, pass us the Pet Carrier will you?" Nigel asked her. Suzanne walked into the shot holding a Pat Carrier. Suzanne then bent down infront of Nigel and opened the Carrier for him. "Thanks Love." Nigel said lowereing the creature into the Carrier. Suzanne's face turned red when Nigel called her 'love'. "Its, uh, Its ok Nigel." Suzanne said. Nigel then put the creature in the carrier and closed the lid. "YES!" Nigel shouted jumping up.
"One male Paleothyris! One female Phlegethontia! And finally a male Petrolacosaurus!" Nigel said punching the air.
Nigel then made his way around to the Jeep, which was near the river. The Jeep had the Paleothyris, Phlegethontia and the Petrolacosaurus all in the back seat and the Speed boat on its roof. "Now, lets get back to the park." Nigel said climbing into the drivers seat, with Suzanne in the passanger's seat.
Soon Nigel, Suzanne and all the creature were safely back at the park.
"Bob! What did you do to you're self?" Nigel asked walking into the Recovery room. Bob was sat in the bed, with a sling on his left arm and half of his head rapped in bandage's. "Long story Nigel, so what have you brought me back this time?" Bob said cheerfully.
"Well, Two Lizards and a Eel." Nigel sitting on the end of Bobs bed. "An Eel? Really Nigel?" Bob said putting on his anynnoyed face. "Yeah, but dont worry. Bill and Ben have built a Glass fence going through the middel of the Bug house, stopping the Lizards and Bugs eating each other. The
Phlegethontia, well she's in the aquarium. We had a speical room made for her which replicates the air of the Carboniferous. Like the Bug house, only flooded." Nigel said cheerfully.
"Are you telling me the only reason you had me build that aquarium is for one Eel? Nigel, I would have just built a pond in the bug house!" Bob said getting angry.
"No relax mate, I plan on getting all of the tanks in the Aqarium fulled up." Nigel said grining evily.
Next time ...
Nigel takes the 'Anicent Mariner' back to the Late Creataceous in search of Nessie's Carnivorous Cousin.
