Oh wow this looks really good. Hoping they show modern species living alongside the extinct ones too.

I already saw it, no they don't, but it's really good anyway, the cgi is good, and also the information is updated to what we know now, not only stereotypical stuff. They like put the focus majorly on the paleontologist work, so u will see more people than cgi, but in the complex is really good

“Modern” animals are no more modern evolutionarily or ecologically than extinct Late Pleistocene megafauna. After all they were contemporaries.

100% facts, also there are three yet to be described species of megafauna Carnivores from Pleistocene Australia, another large ziphodont land croc distinct from quinkana, another giant monitor larger than the Komodo dragon, and a land dwelling dwarf mekosuchine.

Hate to break it to you, but none of these show up. The doco only features 5 extinct species.
There needs to be a photorealistic miniseries of the Cenozoic, like prehistoric planet.

Forgotten Bloodlines: Agate
A prehistoric planet episode based on the Pleistocene of Australia would be epic
Did I just get transported back to the 2000s? So many paleo documentaries that either came out or got announced in the span of just 3 years.

all the paleo documentary industry needs to get going is a defibrillator, i.e. prehistoric planet or wwd
I'd really love to see a documentary about recently extinct animals like Haarths eagle, passenger pigeon, tasmanian tiger and the dodo bird. Showing their biology while also showing us how we made them go extinct and the parallels of modern times.

@buckledben Those are all well documented already. The passenger pigeon is no mystery at all. They were killed for sport and food until they were gone (apparently pigeons are delicious, but I've never tried one). The thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger) was wiped out by a combination of government sanctioned cullings (with the nonsensical propaganda that they were killing farmers' sheep, and not that it was actually all the feral dogs that roam in packs), and the feral packs of dogs both out-competing them for food and killing them (thylacines were solitary). The dodo was wiped out by a combination of humans eating them (hunting isn't applicable to an animal with zero fear due to evolving without predators), slow breeding cycle (due to evolving on an island), and the introduction of various invasive species that wiped out their eggs and young (mostly dogs, but also rats and cats). Related to the above, the dodo is in the pigeon family, so likely as tasty as a pigeon. Assuming you meant Haast's eagle, it was hunted to extinction by humans, which is extremely easy to do with any predator due to the fact that they exist in relatively (very) small numbers compared with herbivores.

This is just Death Of The Megabeasts but with more accurate reconstructions.
Where’s quinkana though?? You would think it would be shown at this point. Giant galloping land crocodiles definitely needs some spotlight. Also would be awesome to see quinkana in season 2, as well as meiolania, wonambi, carnivorous kangaroos, and paludirex. Also there is an underscribed species of ziphodont terrestrial crocodile related to quinkana with a well preserved skull yet to be fully published, from Pleistocene Australia, and there was also another terrestrial mekosuchine crocodile but dwarf during the Pleistocene as well.

That’s True, though I read that only 6 megafauna species will be in the first season. The short faced kangaroo, diprotodon, genyornis, megalania, thylacoleo, and Palorchestes. Probably season 2
Kangaroos walking like theropod dinosaurs would be terrifying.
This is a two part series that focuses on WHAT killed the megafauna ; there's some CGI but it's not Walking with dinosaurs or the like. The critters are there to show their appearance and locomotion. Lots of scientists, fossils, landscapes, Hugh Jackman narrating. The 5 critters you see in the short are the only ones animated. Reason being their vast amount of good fossils and also Indigenous lore. No obscure or fragmentary species are used, neither are smaller species; it's only megafauna. Species like Quinkana, Meiolania and big snake species aren't covered - they don't fit the criteria, they have extant relatives that are similar in size. Very nice program, more inclined to the average person who has little knowledge these animals existed.
@jointcerulean3350

??? Those other species do fit the criteria though 100%, a giant 6m galloping land crocodile with ziphodont dentition like allosaurus doesn’t have any modern fully terrestrial relatives, nor does meiolania which was a terrestrial stem turtle with armored horned skull and a large clubbed tail like anykosaurids and glyptodons. Also there are modern species like megalania but not as large such as the Komodo dragon, and megalania fosisls from what I’ve gathered are fragmentary, but certainly more fossils than quinkana, meiolania, and wonambi.
Mega Kangaroo Pug. Yes. Finally something adorable from Australia

Yeah...I don't known about that. They were taller that a human and likely couldn't hop, instead having to walk on their hind-limb toes looking like a weird mix of kangaroo and retro theropod dinosaur. And they also had only a single toe on each foot. They are still cool though but I'd go with somewhat creepy instead of cute.

12 peeps on the moon. 10 in the cave. That guy’s a legend.
"there's been 12 people on the moon and 10 people in this cave" wow. Really makes you realise how much of our own planet we haven't explored, compared to what we know about space.
Now this is what we needed!
I saw this on Tuesday, I cannot wait to see the rest of this series.
This one looks actually legit in its animation, I hope if its not like WWB it can at least be a bit like When Dinosaurs Roamed America, full of education and focus on the subject and fossils. Oh wait I think the Megalania's walking animation is a bit off

Bro i have watched it yesterday because it was on abc iview
For anyone hoping this might be a doco featuring many species, sorry, but this only really features 5 species, Geneornus, Diprotodon, Procoptodon, Thylacoleo and Megalania. It focuses specifically on talking about what might have caused the extinction of Australia's megafauna, as well as discussing a bit about these species. Very interesting, but not wide-sweeping.

So far, it looks pretty nice, it’s great we have another Cenozoic documentary alongside forgotten bloodlines agate. Tho, compared to a indi project, this docus animation isn’t as good, it feels much more like a Video game in some shots.
Looks good, was kinda hoping for a quinkana to appear or be mentioned but still
So hyped
I hope they remember to have Procoptodon walking, not hopping.

It turns out it’s man!!
I was a good doco but only showed the standard most famous megafauna not the cool niche ones like wonambi or Quinkana, etc. Also the doco tries to say indigenous people had little to no impact on megafauna numbers which I thought was a little farfetched to me it's pretty clear humans would've had a large impact on the megafauna as well as changes to the climate...
