Dinosaur

Corrected entry: When the migration is taking place, Aladar is speaking with one of the lemurs who are riding on its back. Where are the other three lemurs? The four lemurs where on its back a few shots before, but now there's only one. The next shot, however, show the other three lemurs again on its back, appearing from nowhere.

Correction: They don't appear from 'nowhere'. If you watch closely, throughout the whole middle part of the movie, they are constantly jumping on and off of his back.

Corrected entry: When Aladar joins the herd, the triceratops exclaims that Baleen (the diplodocus) is the last of her kind. But when the Pterodctyl takes Aladar's egg and does the panoramic flight, he flies through a group of dinosaurs that have many diplodocus. (00:10:00 - 00:50:00)

Correction: The panoramic flight with the egg took place long before Eema mentions Bayleen being the last of her kind. All of the others most likely died of natural causes or in the events of the meteor.

Corrected entry: Across all the movie we see grass in the ground. The truth is, grass didn't exist until the Cenozoic era, and many scientific studies prove that. In the Cenozoic era, the dinosaurs had already died, so it's impossible that dinosaurs and grass existed at the same time.

Correction: The movie is an animated work of fiction and never intended, nor even tried to accurately portray evolution (i.e. dinosaurs didn't talk either). The movie is told however the fiction writers intended and as such it's not a mistake.

Corrected entry: Across all the movie we see a variety of primates, like lemurs, etc. Actually, the primates didn't exist when the dinosaurs where in Earth. The primates appeared when the Dinosaurs had already died - many centuries after the movie it's supposed to take place.

Factual error: The average Iguanodon is estimated to have weighed around 3.4 tons, while Carnotaurus probably weighed about 1.5 tons. By this logic, during the final Carnotaurus encounter, the rocks at the edge of the cliff should have crumbled when Kron tried to escape, but remained intact until the Carnotaur was at the edge of the cliff. This is because the Carnotaurs in the film are inaccurately depicted as being T-Rex - sized animals.

Neera: Kron, we've never gone this far without water: if we keep going like this, we'll lose half the Herd.
Kron: Then we save the half that deserves to live.
