There is something missing from our world. The amazing creatures that time has left behind. But what if we could bring them back?

What if extinction didn't have to be forever?

We're going back in time on a safari with a difference as wildlife adventurer Nigel Marvin plunges into prehistory to rescue creatures on the brink of extinction. His plan is to bring them back to the safety of the present and give them a second chance.

This time, the team goes back seventy five million years to rescue the inhabitants of the most dangerous sea of all time!

Welcome to the ultimate wildlife sanctuary.

Welcome to Prehistoric Park!

With over a hundred residents occupying land sea and air, Prehistoric Park has become a spectacular success. From a pack of Dimetrodon to a herd of Diplodocus and a menagerie of oreodonts, the park is filled with extinct species.

Now, though, Nigel wants to turn his attention back to the water.

Instead of examining fossils in his den, Nigel is at the park's Aquatic Pens, looking at some of the residents. Chief amongst them ois the park's sole Dolichorynchops, though nearby, a group of Potamornis were also being observed, occasionally hissing at their competition for beach-space - namely, desmostylids and seals.

"Mosasaurs might get the focus when studying the late cretaceous seas, but they weren't the only creatures to roam them. Polycotylids like Dolichorynchops and elasmosaurs such as Elasmosaurus were also doing well during that time. While we already have few of them, I wouldn't mind have a few more of these wonderous sea reptiles at Prehistoric Park.

While Nigel has some experience in these waters, he needs to be careful - the rest of the team will be entering these waters for the very frist time.

Of course, the team has their own problems to worry about right now.

On a piece of shoreline right by where the birds and prehistoric mammals were now resting, all was calm, if only for a moment. Then, slowly, the soil began to shake, until at last, a tiny form began to break out of it. A shell covered its back and belly, whilst four tiny flippers slowly worked to heave the little creature out of the sand, eventually succeeding in freeing the hatchling from its birth place.

Wasting no time, the baby Toxochelys began to make a mad dash for the water...only to find its dash halt by a strange wall. Closer examination revealed it to be a meshwire cage - one that was well anchored to the ground, with holes too small for a predator to reach into, too heavy to be overturned, and too strong to be torn open.

All around the beach, more turtle eggs were beginning to hatch, only to find their movements restricted by the little cages. All of these would keep them safe until the night fell.

The park had noticed the turtles coming to shore to breed weeks before, and had already made plans to care for the eggs long before they hatched. Already, some of the nests had released their broods, which had been evacuated to the waves under cover of night. Eventually, more eggs would hatch, until all of the turtle-spawn were out of their eggs and in the ocean. In time, some would return to these beaches, and the cycle would start all over again.

Already, though, they had danger watching them - one of the park's Pectinodon was watching them, eyes filled with hunger...at least, for a moment. Then it took a bite out of a gull it had killed, and the baby turtles were forgotten.

The team, who had brought out the troodont for the purpose of scaring off the gulls, observed this all for a moment, before calling the carnivore back and retruning it to its pen.

To rescue the magnificent reptiles of the Western Interior Seaway, Nigel will have to travel back seventy five million years, to a sea he is very familiar with - Hell's Aquarium. This time, though, he bringing that hell back to Earth. Let's hope he doesn't regret it.

As the team exits the portal, a familiar scene greats them - a horde of sea birds resting on the beach, calling to each other. The appearance leaves no doubt to what these are - Hesperornis, one of the most famous prehistoric sea birds. This group may very well be the same ones Nigel has seen during a previous travel to the seven deadliest seas of all time. Now, though, other creatures have joined them - other hesperornids have also occupied the beach, whilst a group of pterosaurs have begun to fly inland. Even dinosaurs can be found on this beach - a small group of armored herbivores from two species feast on some shrubbery further up the shoreline.

"Too many avian species to count, and the pterosaurs aren't close enough to give a reasonable assumption as to their identities, but I think those ankylosaurs...well, I guess they're actually nodosaurs, but I think they're Hierrosaurus," intoned Alice.

"Gonna agree with you there," was Tristan's response. "Now how do we get it over here?"

Marcus answered that question by throwing a stone at the armored herbivores, which immediately turned their thoughts to him. His response was to promptly start yelling at them, whilst brandishing a stick and advancing toward them.

The herbivores were initially indifferent toward him but once he started advancing, they went on the defensive, and started slamming their tails onto the ground and growling out warning, which fell as on deaf ears as the human advanced.

The team, catching onto his plan, quickly began setting up the portal.

Eventually, Marcus got too close for comfort, and the herbivores charged him.

Knowing his plan had worked, Marcus dropped the stick and started running backwards, easily managing to outpace the herbivores.

A moment later, and they had run through the portal, having been so focused on driving the human off that they were unable to slow down until it was too late.

With one rescue down, the team turns their attention toward the other shore dwellers...who are already starting to move toward the water.

Sighing, the team joins them, already setting up the aquatic portal - where they're going, the Mariner will be a must.

Unnoticed by the team, from the forests further up the shoreline, a pack of predators watches on. They had been tracking the nodosaurs for hours, only for their meals to be yanked away when they were finally within sight. Annoyed, the predators now had their attention focused on the humans. For now, the humans would be unreachable to them...but eventually, they would have to return to the shoreline. And when they did, they would become food.
