Computers help us see...

Computer animation gives us a fascinating look at the lives of several extinct creatures - woolly mammoth, sabre tooth cat, dodo, great auk, Irish elk and Tasmanian tiger - and explores the causes that contributed to their extinction. Not quite as in-depth as "Walking with Dinosaurs" but very nicely done - one of the better uses for computers (IMHO)
