Ep. 4 - on one of his stops the narrator describes the primitive birds nipping and tearing at his wing membrane, but it's shown in low detail and far away. In general the pterosaur models have strangely skinny looking wings with finger bones visible; those are of course destroyed when predators eat them.

The camera motion can be shaky whenever there are two dinosaurs fighting. There are some scenes where the dinosaurs interact with the camera, causing it to jump or rattle, but it is not sustained.

It is all animated or pieces of meat being manipulated by puppets. All of the episode have an animal puppet which is mutilated in some way with details like blood and bones sticking out, for when they have been eaten by predators.
