Unknown to them, they are about to be caught in the Triassic-Jurassic Extinction. Hours before the impact, two Staurikosaurus are shown ignoring the mysterious rumbling. When plumes of steam emerge from the ground, bunches of Staurikosaurus are shown following a herd of Desmatosuchus to higher ground.
