Dino Dana!

[Dana] The First Elephant

And two giant tusks.

There you are, Dana.

Come on, the museum's closing soon, let's go.

Almost done.

Elephant?

Close.

Its scientific name was Elephas Primigenius

which is Latin for first elephant.

Need another hint?

Yes.

Maybe one that's not in Latin?

These prehistoric animals

only became extinct 4000 years ago.

That means they lived around people.

In fact,

cave people used to draw pictures of them.

See?

Those drawings are thousands of years old?

Isn't it amazing?

Wait, I think I remember this one.

Isn't it the Woolly Mammoth?

Did you just read the sign?

Yes.

Let's go.

Just think, Saara.

Thousands of years ago, cave kids used to draw

the Woolly Mammoth just like I am now.

I bet that they had cave sisters

that wouldn't let them finish their work either.

But why do you like to draw everything?

Because every fossil has a story

and it's up to us to uncover it.

Look at that tusk, Saara.

That once belonged to a real,

living, breathing animal.

What story does it want to tell us?

Maybe how it fell off?

Exactly.

Did it rip off during a fight?

Or snap off while digging for food?

These drawings help me imagine what might have happened.

I think I know exactly what happened.

My two daughters weren't waiting

where they said they would be.

Now, come on. Museum's about to close.

Dad, just a minute.

We're using Dana's drawings

to imagine this fossils story.

Oh, that's cute. Now, let's go.

Wait, Dana.

If your drawings help you imagine

what happened to that fossil,

maybe other people's drawings could help you too?

The cave drawings. Great idea, Saara.

Dad, look at these cave pictures.

Notice anything?

Is that a Woolly Mammoth?

Yes. What else?

Is that a person?

Not just a person. A prehistoric person.

Cave people didn't just draw the Woolly Mammoth.

They also drew themselves hunting the Woolly Mammoth.

Drawings was one of the first ways

people used to remember their stories.

Wait. Are those spears?

Uh huh. Wooden spears.

Just imagine.

Thousands of years ago,

pre-historic cave people would have hunted that.

How hard could it be?

Okay, maybe it wouldn't be that easy.

So, the tusk didn't snap off because of the cave people?

Doesn't look like it.

Woolly Mammoths were tough.

They were bigger than today's elephants

and their tusks were larger and more curved.

Looks like this fossil wants

to keep it's story a mystery.

Wait.

You said cave people used drawings

to tell their stories, right?

Right.

Well, did they tell any other stories?

Let's see.

Wait, what's that?

An awesome and fearsome prehistoric carnivore.

And its fossil is right behind you.

Whoa.

Smilodon.

[Dana] Also known as sabretooth cat.

Wait.

A cat could take down a Woolly Mammoth?

Not just any cat.

A giant cat with teeth the size of your head.

Scientists think the Smilodon

may have stayed up in trees,

waiting for the right moment to pounce down on it's prey.

That's one mean kitty.

Maybe he knocked off this Wooly's tusk.

Interesting theory, Dad.

Story uncovered.

Why do you look sad, nugget?

Nothing.

It's just I like hanging out with you and Saara at the museum

and now I know it's time to leave.

I'll be okay.

Thank you for sharing your story, Woolly.

[Saara] Hey, Dana.

What do you think of this drawing?

[Saara] It's a drawing of us at the museum.

Exactly.

Just like the cave people used their drawings

to remember their stories,

you can use this drawing to remember

the story of today.

Thanks, Seester.

No problem, Seester.

Why do I have such a weirdly shaped head?

Because that's what your head looks like.

Does not.

Does it?

[Dana] Next up, More Dino Dana.

Dino Dana!

[Dana] Dino Burrow.

[squawks]

[Dana] What are you doing, Troodon?

[squawks]

Dana, I thought you were going to help me?

I thought Saara was helping.

I am.

Listen, girls.

You said you would shovel and I still have to make lunch

and finish the laundry before I drop you off at dance

and you off at your club.

Fossil Identification Club is today?

This week we're talking about Coprolites.

That's fossilized dino droppings.

Well, I was getting hungry.

Mom, why don't you head inside and make us lunch

while we finish up out here.

Thank you, Saara.

Okay, Dana, you finish up.

What?

Robin is dealing with some pretty serious stuff right now.

You wouldn't understand.

She unfollowed you?

[chirping]

What was it doing in there?

Better go investigate.

Hmm, it's like some kind of cave.

A Troodon baby.

Oops, sorry. Did I wake you?

[coos]

Was that your mom?

[squawks]

Sounds like she's coming back.

Wait, she might not like that I'm here with you.

Think, Dana, think.

[♪♪♪]

[squawking]

[both squawk]

Hi, Mama Troodon. Squawk.

It's just us, your two babies in here.

Squawk!

[squawks]

Did you dig this?

I guess you did but why?

[Mom] Dana, Saara.

I better go.

[squawking]

Or maybe not.

Why are you not letting me leave?

Are you listening for something?

[squawking]

Now's my chance. Bye, baby.

[coos]

Mom, you won't believe it.

You and Saara didn't do what you said you would do?

I do believe it because that's what happened.

No, well yes but...

Why don't you tell me while you shovel.

Good idea.

I found a Troodon baby and its mom

living in a snow cave under our tree fort.

When I tried to leave to finish shoveling

the mom wouldn't let me go.

Why would she do that?

Well, that's a new excuse.

It's not.

I'm very disappointed in you too, Dana.

You should talk.

Mom! Keep shoveling.

Did it look like this, Dana?

What's that?

It's a penguin burrow.

Some birds build burrows to lay eggs

and raise their babies in.

That doesn't explain why the mom Troodon

wouldn't let me leave.

Maybe she thought there was a predator around

and wanted to keep you safe inside.

Interesting theory.

You two finish up here.

Lunch will be ready soon.

No more excuses.

Okay, Dana. You finish up.

I'll supervise you.

Oh, hey, Robin. Sorry. She took away my phone.

[baby squawking]

The baby Troodon's outside it's burrow?

What if there's a predator around?

I better get the baby back inside.

[♪♪♪]

Come on. In you go.

[roars]

Oh no, that Nanuqsaurus.

Mom's theory was right.

Quick, get inside, baby.

[squawks]

[squawks]

The Nanuqsaurus is a carnivore

that would love a little teensy snack like you.

[squawks]

[♪♪♪]

[roars]

[growls]

[growls]

[growls]

[roars]

[sighs] That was close.

[screeches]

Oh no. It's coming back!

[mom] Dana, are you in there?

No.

[mom] Really?

Yes.

Mom, your theory was right.

Which one?

The one where I thought it could trust you

and your sister to finish the driveway?

Okay, you were wrong about that one

but you were right about the Troodon burrow.

It is for staying safe.

Me and a baby Troodon just hid from a Nanuqsaurus inside.

[sighs]

That's great. Lunch is ready.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

That was great. Thanks, Mom.

You're done? I'm done too.

I'll clean this up.

And then I'll go finish the driveway.

Oh, mom, we'll do the driveway.

Yeah, we said we would.

Don't worry about it.

Okay.

Thanks again for lunch.

[dinosaur screech]

Oh, no. The Nanuqsaurus is back.

Dana, why don't you go investigate?

Good idea. Thanks, Mom.

[growls]

Baby! Get inside!

[squawks]

Oh no,

the Nanuqsaurus found the entrance of the burrow.

[chirping]

Mama Troodon, you baby's in trouble.

[squawks]

Where are you going?

Oh, you're digging your baby out.

Good idea. I'll help.

[squawks]

Come on, baby!

[roars]

[growls]

Oh no, your burrow.

But at least your baby is safe.

Baby Troodon, you should really thank your mom.

She built a burrow for you and protected you

from a predator.

[chirps]

Mom's are great.

Let me help you rebuild your burrow, Mama Troodon.

[squawks]

And I know just where to get the snow from.

I felt bad.

Me too.

Let's see who can shovel the fastest?

You're on.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

Saara, Dana, we have to get going.

Did you two do all this?

Well, mostly me.

But Dana helped too.

Aw, thanks, girls.

Let's get going.

Did you pack my new leotard?

And my portable microscopes.

I'm sure what you meant to say is,

"thanks, Mom, for packing all my stuff."

[both] Thanks, Mom.

But seriously, did you?

No. Let's go get them.

I'll meet you guys inside.
