“Jurassic World Rebirth,” the latest installment in the blockbuster movie franchise, is out Wednesday, going back to its roots with a high-stakes adventure to a remote tropical island. And streaming on PBS now is the newest iteration of "Walking With Dinosaurs,” a BBC series that brings viewers into the lives of six species, mixing footage of scientists on digs around the world with animated sequences imagining how they lived.
University of Maryland geology Principal Lecturer and paleontologist Thomas Holtz, who is the Science and Global Change program director, consulted on the documentary series, guiding filmmakers as they designed the dinosaurs, from the color of their skin to the sounds they might make to the way that they walked.
