So, it's an Upper Mesozoic kind of set. Fair enough, Colbert starts off the "Age of Reptiles" in the Permian, but dinos didn't really take off until the lower Jurassic.
And, it's an American/Canadian kind of set. All the animals were native to western North America, excepting one from Mongolia, one from Africa, and two from Argentina.
