Three carnivorous Coelophysis, one male and two females, walk amongst a forest of prehistoric Araucaria evergreens. Coelophysis is one of the earliest known dinosaurs, emerging about 215 million years ago during the late Triassic period. It stood only as tall as a man's hip and probably was a fast runner.
