Dinotrux is an American computer-animated television series. It is based on Chris Gall's illustrated children's book series, which features a fictional prehistoric world inhabited by hybrid characters that are part dinosaur and part mechanical construction vehicle.[3] The series debuted on August 14, 2015 on Netflix,[1] while season 2 premiered on March 11, 2016.
