Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Dr. Cecilia and her assistant Mike discover a glacier containing a mammoth, Phil, frozen solid. After being defrosted, Phil narrates the tales of CRO, an inquisitive Cro-Magnon boy. CRO uses applied science and enlists the help of a highly intelligent group of mammoths to aid a blundering clan of Neanderthals. It's an exploration of the Ice Age in an animated comedy/adventure format. Written by Hotlink |

| Trivia | After ABC canceled Cro, the Children's Television Workshop started planning its own TV channel so it wouldn't have to rely on other companies to air its shows. The channel, named Noggin, launched in 1999 and aired reruns of Cro. See more » |
