Among the species that have ruled 200 million years on Earth, nine are presented in Walking With Dinosaurs, including the terrifying Tyrannosaurus Rex , and also Triassic, Platosaurus , Liliensternus , Stegosaurus and Allosaurus , both evolving in the Jurassic period, as well as the Torosaurus and Utahraptor , two species living during the Cretaceous.
