Understandably the old and young around the world are fascinated with dinosaurs but there are plenty of other animals that existed after the dinosaurs that deserve more attention. Today we have lost the majority of our megafauna and it really is a shame that we have lost these giant beasts. In this video i will be going through just a few giant prehistoric beasts and i will be comparing them to their modern day counterparts. We will be travelling around the world both on land and in the sea as i will be going through 3 prehistoric beasts that dwarf their modern day counterparts.
