List of unused creatures

Dinosaur Revolution began production in the spring of 2009, and over its three-year-long production period, many creatures were planned to be featured in the show. Unfortunately, only a handful of them were featured in the final cut of the show. This is a list of all the creatures that were originally supposed to appear in Dinosaur Revolution but were ultimately cut.

Creatures

Acrocanthosaurus was originally supposed to appear in Dinosaur Revolution but was ultimately cut. Its model was reportedly later reused in the documentary series Monsters Resurrected in several stock clips, one of which included Tenontosaurus. This stock clip with Tenontosaurus was later reused in Dinotasia.
