The Pack

A young Albertosaurus, a relative of T. Rex, must prove herself in a deadly hunting pack or face starvation 71 million years ago. Today, paleontologists in Canada uncover her remains, using their evidence to reveal her battle for survival.

For a group of carnivores, tensions flare when they haven’t eaten for over a week. Surviving in the cave full of Albertosaurus can be a lot easier if you have a partner. Despite their scary appearance, could these deadly predators also be capable of affection?

Smaller Albertosaurus were faster than the heavier, stronger members of the group. Can the pack make the most of this range of skills when hunting an animal much larger than themselves. By driving an Edmontosaurus into a trap, Rose the Albertosaurus has helped the group stave of hunger, and earned the respect of the group.
