10 Prehistoric Deaths Worse Than You Think

When people think about prehistoric death, they usually imagine a quick attack from a giant predator. But the fossil record tells a much darker story. In this video, we look at 10 prehistoric deaths that were far worse than they first appear. Some animals were trapped for weeks, some survived brutal attacks only to live with the damage, and others died as entire ecosystems collapsed around them.
