4 Billion Years Of Extraordinary Australia

Australia's prehistory - arguably the world's oldest and richest - is about to take centre stage with the release of Dinosaurs in the Kangaroo Crypt: 4 billion years of extraordinary Australia. This CD-ROM, published by Dataworks, was produced by the National Museum of Australia, the ABC, the University of New South Wales, the Riversleigh Society and Sydney multimedia company Energee Entertainment.

Dinosaurs in the Kangaroo Crypt features realistic animated images of Australian dinosaurs in their natural environment, along with a multitude of photgraphic images of fossils. Children will love the animations of dinosaurs roaming the environment.

Beyond the animations, the CD-ROM offers a wealth of information on Australia's prehistory. There is an extensive database with information about Australia's creatures and their habitats; dreamtime stories narrated by tribal elders; plate tectonics where users can watch Australia's land mass shift through time; and lots of practical information about collecting, preparing and identifying fossils, and about pursuing palaeontology as a hobby or profession through high school and into university.
