Megafauna: What killed Australia’s giant? (January 25)
A two-part documentary series narrated by Hugh Jackman. Australia was once home to a special group of animals known as megafauna.

Among them are Thylacoleo, a marsupial lion armed with bone-crushing teeth, Megalania, the world’s largest venomous land lizard, and Procoptodon, a short-faced kangaroo that was probably too large to jump. Included. This series brings them to life in the most scientifically accurate representation ever created for television.
