With the help of scientific experts and advanced computer programs, this Discovery Channel series is able to take a look at what the future would be like millions of years ago, after millennia of evolution phase humans completely out of existence. A bleak idea at first, these educated hypotheticals soon prove to be truly outrageous and often amazing - after all, what human could compete with eight-ton squids roaming around on dry land, or spiders big enough to eat mammals for breakfast?

Vorige aflevering:21 The Tentacled Forest
The Tentacled Forest is set in the northern jungle, 200,000,000 years into the future. At this point in the future, there are no mammals, birds, reptiles or amphibians. The episode focuses on three species. Forest Flish - a smaller species of flish with hooks for feet so it can hang upside down to rest Megasquid - a four metre tall squid with rhino-like skin and three metre tentacles which patrols the forest. Its eight boneless legs are packed with muscles that act like bones. Squibbon - an arboreal species of squid with stereoscopic vision that could well be the next sapient life on the planet This forest is about the only place left on Earth where there is consistent rain and trees can grow. The trees here are lichen trees, descended from simple lichens. The forest is populated with a whole manner of creatures that would look out of place in our time. The episode shows how animals that were once aquatic have evolved to conquer the forests. It also suggests that the squibbon could become the next species to develop sapience and become the dominant force on planet Earth.
