Walking With Dinosaurs magazine was a monthly magazine that ran for c.17 issues from 2000 to 2001. It was published by Planet Three Publishing Network Ltd and priced at £1.75.
From issue 5 it was rebranded as Discovering Dinosaurs magazine and expanded from 16 to 24 pages; all images from the TV series were dropped and the magazine began to feature dinosaurs from upcoming films such as Disney's Dinosaur and Jurassic Park III. But despite dropping most of the Walking with Dinosaurs imagery, many of the dinosaur designs (outside of the dinosaurs from the featured films of the time) were based on Walking with Dinosaurs' depictions.
Most issues featured competitions with the prize being the exclusive Ornithocheirus toy.
