All well and thoughtful, but the production still involved lots of running from hungry T-rexes, stampeding brontosaurs, giant bugs and dozens of other threatening creatures that weren't there. Large, four-legged brontosaurs and swift, bipedal theropods blazed those trails across the gently sloping shores of a freshwater lake about 150 million years ago, says Katherine McCarville of the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City.
