The Behemoths (short story)

The Behemoths was the second short story in DWPM 3, which focused on the Silurians.
== Summary ==
Before they went into their slumber, the reptile people took with them a number of their less intelligent reptilian cousins. As they wake in the age of humanity, they put the creatures to murderous use, including a Tyrannosaurus rex under the Wenley Moor centre and a Myrka at Seabase Four. Both of these were destroyed — but was the latter beast the last surviving Myrka? Or might vast undersea colonies of the monsters not have survived the arrival of the Moon?
== Characters ==
* Third Doctor
* The Brigadier
* Spencer
* Davis
* Silurian pet
* Myrka
== Worldbuilding ==
* The Myrka is a species of dinosaur.
== Notes ==
* This story does not use the term "Silurian"; the creatures are referred to once as "Homo reptilia", and then as "reptile people" throughout.
== Continuity ==
* Homo reptilia used dinosaurs including a Tyrannosaurus rex (TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians) and Myrka. (TV: Warriors of the Deep)
