Prehistoric Predators is a thrilling docu-series produced by National Geographic in 2007 that explores the ferocious and menacing creatures that once roamed the earth before modern civilization. The show is hosted by Marcos Akiaten, Roger Tilling, and Chip Bolcik, who take viewers on a fascinating journey through time to witness the savage beasts that dominated the prehistoric era.

The series revolves around the concept of using modern science to study the biology and behavior of these extinct predators, and then comparing this with contemporary animals. Viewers get an in-depth look at the anatomy, physiology, and hunting techniques of these animals, which were the original apex predators before humans evolved to dominate the food chain.

Each episode focuses on a different type of prehistoric predator, such as the iconic T-Rex, the saber-toothed cat, the giant crocodile, or the prehistoric shark. The series also features some lesser-known creatures that might come as a surprise to viewers, such as the prehistoric sloth, the woolly mammoth, and the giant insect.

The show uses a combination of computer-generated imagery (CGI) and live-action footage to bring these creatures back to life in stunning detail. Viewers get to see the predators in action, stalking their prey, fighting other predators, and defending their territories. The CGI technology also enables the show's hosts to simulate various scenarios and run experiments to test theories about the behavior of these animals.

One of the highlights of the series is the expert commentary provided by a team of scientists, paleontologists, and zoologists. These experts provide context and insights into the prehistoric era, explaining how these creatures evolved and the ways in which they adapted to their environments. They also compare the predators
