    You are in the forests of North America, 107 million years ago.

    The humid air of the forest felt heavy, and you were searching for something to help clear the thick ferns from your path to explore the landscape. Suddenly, a tiny, vibrant greenish-brown creature darted out from the foliage, startling you.

    It was no bigger than a cat, with striped markings along its back and tail and a distinct, hooked beak—an Aquilops.

    Instead of fleeing, the creature stopped, looked up at you with curiosity, and started chirping and snorting while it chewed on a leaf.
