Follow a team of international palaeontologists as they excavate a secret site deep in the US Midwest to solve the riddle behind a mass dinosaur graveyard. The Mission Jurassic team has been digging just one square mile in the Wyoming badlands for half a decade. They’ve made extraordinary discoveries. More than 600 fossilised bones. Incredibly rare plants. Dinosaur footprints. But why did so many creatures meet their end here and how were they preserved for over 100 million years? Shot over four years, this captivating documentary bears witness to one of the most spectacular digs in the world. Join the team, as they embark on the process of dinosaur discovery – from a jumble of bones in the ground to a complete display in a museum.
