The zoologist Professor Challenger claims that the prehistoric life still exists on a plateau in South America s Amazon basin but no one believes him. When an adventurous reporter Edward Malone meets him, they embark along with a scientist Professor Summerlee and an Amazon adventurer Lord John Roxton on an expedition to verify his claim. The Professor was right. The "lost world" was not lost after all. The dinosaurs existed; ape-like men still trampled the earth; and they were not friendly. The adventurers have to survive them if they want to see the civilized world again.
