Along with the annoying "always screaming" dinosaurs,
my biggest gripe has to be that every dinosaur
featured in these documentaries, is part of a
herd/pack/family group. God forbid they show dinosaurs
living alone; like most animals today.

Easily one of the best things about "Prehistoric
Beasts" was the scene where a lone _Tyrannosaurus_
attacked a lone _Monoclonius_. We need footage like that.
