Ep 1. Big Jon Big Trouble

Dino Ranch is an animated children's show about three siblings, Jon, Min, and Miguel who run a ranch where they take care of prehistoric animals. Each episode is centered around the trio as they learn responsibility while protecting the dinosaur herd.

In the first episode, titled "Big Jon Big Trouble," we are introduced to the three siblings as they wake up early on the ranch to start their day. Jon, the oldest of the three siblings, is tasked with rounding up the cattle. However, Jon is the biggest and strongest of the siblings, and he often underestimates his strength, leading to trouble.

On this particular morning, while rounding up a group of ankylosaurs, Jon knocks down a fence with his tail, sending the ankylosaurs running in every direction. The siblings realize that they now need to find a way to round up the ankylosaurs before they go too far.

As they begin to search for the ankylosaurs, Min spots a pair of binoculars on a nearby hill. The siblings agree that the binoculars might help them locate the ankylosaurs more quickly, so they set off to retrieve them.

On the way to the hill, Miguel spots a group of triceratops grazing in a nearby field. The siblings decide to check them out, but in the process, Jon accidentally wakes them up, causing them to stampede. The three siblings manage to escape the stampede, but they realize that they need to be much more careful when dealing with the dinosaurs.

When they arrive at the base of the hill, Jon decides to climb up and retrieve the binoculars. However, on the way up, he becomes stuck in between two boulders. The siblings realize that Jon's size and strength have once again gotten him into trouble.

Min comes up with a plan to rescue Jon, using a long rope that she throws over a nearby branch. Jon manages to grab onto the rope, and Min and Miguel pull him up to safety.

With Jon safe, the siblings are once again on the hunt for the ankylosaurs. They eventually spot them in a nearby canyon and realize that they need to move quickly to prevent them from escaping. The siblings come up with a plan to use a giant rock to block the canyon's entrance and stop the ankylosaurs from escaping.

Together, the siblings push the rock into place, successfully blocking the canyon's entrance and keeping the ankylosaurs from escaping. They lead the ankylosaurs back to the ranch, where they are greeted with excitement from the other dinosaurs.
