Moviecut—Attenborough and the Sea Dragon

Interesting program. The CGI renderings of these extinct beasts is awe-inspiring, as is the footage of the ichthyosaurs present-day descendants, the crocodiles. The sheer scale of effort required to unearth these fossils is impressive. But as for the forensic scientist's ruling on a cause of death for the show's primary fossil discovery -- isn't it plausible this creature died of natural causes? The skeleton could've been damaged by the elements, sediments, glacier, or scavengers after it died. It's confusing why these paleontologists jump to the conclusion that its torso was snapped by the jaws of a massive predator.

Hosted by British broadcaster and natural historian, David Attenborough - "Sea Dragon" is really quite an interesting documentary that focuses its attention in on the fascinating discovery of a 200-million-year-old fossil belonging to the prehistoric sea-creature known as "Ichthyosaur" (which was recently uncovered just off the coast of England). This educational, 1-hour presentation not only goes to great lengths to show the viewer what this awesome creature would actually look like with all of its skin on - But, it also gives one a good idea of this beast's ferocious eating habits and its fierce dominance of the sea, as well.
