The Tuatara: The Ancient Creature That Outlived The Dinosaurs | Full Documentary

On remote islands of New Zealand lives a reptile older than the dinosaurs: the tuatara. With a third eye on its head, a spiny back, and DNA unchanged for over 200 million years, this “living fossil” is the last survivor of an ancient lineage. Scientists venture through volcanic landscapes, hidden burrows, and fossil beds to uncover how the tuatara endured when all its relatives vanished. From New Zealand’s windswept coasts to the crocodile estuaries of northern Australia, this film traces the species’ remarkable story of resilience, adaptation, and fragile survival in a modern world.
