Special Preview Trailer
''(The trailer opens with a black screen as the text fades up "From the studio that brought you Toy Story and Tarzan" and another text fades up "Walt Disney Pictures presents this special preview from director Steven Spielberg". The scene fades up to the nesting grounds as a female Iguanodon softly pats her egg and she looks at her eggs and hears the sounds of Ichthyornis squawking and flying around. A female Iguanodon uses her hand to move her egg at the edge of the nest. Then a baby Parasaurolophus tries to sniff the egg but a female Iguanodon swats at it and makes it shriek. A baby Parasaurolophus tries it again until a female Iguanodon scares it away and it runs off. A baby Parasaurolophus tries to take a look at the other Iguanodon eggs but the other female Iguanodon scares it away. A baby Parasaurolophus chases a flock of Ichthyornis where they fly away to the sky until it sees a Longisquama landing on a log. It goes to a Longisquama who looks at a dragonfly as he catches it with a tongue and devours it. A Longisquama sees a baby Parasaurolophus and it flies into the forest as he tries to catch it up until a Longisquama lands on a big branch and then a Carnotaurus' chest. A Carnotaurus exhales and snuffles as two drool drops land on a big branch. A baby Parasaurolophus looks at it and then a Carnotaurus wakes up growling softly with a mouth of drool. A baby Parasaurolophus comes out of the forest and runs away shrieking. The herd hears a baby Parasaurolophus shrieking as a Pachyrhinosaurus grunts and then a Carnotaurus breaks itself free from the forest as he chases after a baby Parasaurolophus where it cries out meekly twice. A Carnotaurus growls and then a baby Parasaurolophus flees itself like a coward while a Carnotaurus chases after the herd and crushes the Iguanodon eggs but one after he roars ferociously. It runs closer to a Pachyrhinosaurus overheated from running while panting. The scene cuts to a footprint of a Carnotaurus where an Iguanodon egg still stands after a Carnotaurus eats a Pachyrhinosaurus and roars triumphantly. Suddenly, an Oviraptor comes closer to the egg chittering and trilling as he looks at it where it shakes a little bit and snatches it. An Oviraptor runs off into the forest as he jumps onto a log and runs over it like a bridge. He makes it to the cliff as he tries to crack it open but the egg seems unbreakable. He tries to eat it as he hears something cracking and trills. Another Oviraptor grabs an Iguanodon egg as an Oviraptor shrieks. Two Oviraptors growl and snort as they fight over the Iguanodon egg where it falls into the water. They see it and fight each other again. In the underwater, an Iguanodon egg drowns as a Labyrinthodont tries to swallow the egg but coughs it up and floats. At the surface, a pair of Talarurus snorts and growls at each other as they see an Iguanodon egg where it floats and flows away down the stream. One Talarurus sniffs as two of them resume their growling. In the underwater, an egg still flows as a herd of Pachyrhinosaurus drinks water as two of them growl while one tries to drink water, but the other pushes one and makes the egg jump. A Pteranodon squawks picks up an egg with its beak as it flies to a waterfall and dives. The scene goes to a waterfall as a Pteranodon flies past the camera. The scene cuts to a Pteranodon where it flies over the cliff and the herd as it flies underneath a Brontosaurus. The scene fades up to a Pteranodon where it flies to Lemur Island and then to a nest of two Pteranodon babies chirping as it flies higher and past the nest until it becomes swarmed with two Ichthyornis in the middle of a thunderstorm where they try to take the egg but a Pteranodon accidentally drops the egg and it falls into the camera and then the scene changes to a title and fades down. A female lemur cracks the egg open and recognizes a baby Iguanodon and then the trailer ends with a black screen and text "Only in theaters May 2000".)''
