Learn how the first residents of Los Angeles developed and later honed critical battle techniques against the malevolent mega fauna that roamed the landscape. Real stunt performers and high-tech, mechanical recreations of primitive beasts demonstrate a series of pivotal, first encounters between man and monster. With each challenge, early man learns to fashion specific weapons to neutralize the abilities of his much larger foes. And the skills he develops in combat with these goliaths, like the Woolly Mammoth, the Cheetah Bear, the Saber-Toothed Cat and the Giant Terror Bird, go a long way toward ensuring his survival, not only throughout the Pleistocene era, but in the millennia to come.
