Titans of the Ice Age

Journey to a world lost in time, buried in ice, and ruled by giants. In this exciting 3D adventure, narrated by Christopher Plummer, discover an icy world on the brink of extinction, where humans share the frozen tundra with majestic beasts. Encounter some of the Earth’s most awe-inspiring mammals, from saber-toothed cats and dire wolves to giant sloths and the iconic mammoths that lived 10,000 years before modern civilization.

A trip to La Brea Tar Pits is not complete without seeing this 3D movie. Discover how these magnificent creatures lived 10,000–50,000 years before us, became trapped in tar, preserved in time, and are being unearthed today right here at the Tar Pits.
