Is anyone curios about what happened to the dinosaurs? Well let’s take a look. 245 million years ago, Dinosaurs roamed the world. Dinosaurs lived for 180 million years in till a 6 mile wide meteor hit the super continent Pangea and wiped every single dinosaur and they got extinct. It also made a huge crater but over time went away. Most likely if Pangea was broken up before the meteor hit, it could have hit the water or only a portion of land and dinosaurs could have still existed. Even though the dinosaurs got wiped out other animals still lived like birds, sea creatures and more. Some animals are very alike to dinosaurs like birds, lizards and alligator’s. There are also more predictions of how the dinosaurs got wiped. People think that dinosaurs died from a huge volcano eruption or a massive tsunami. I think that the best prediction was a meteor because that sounds most likely to cause the most damage and to wipe out many animal species. There are some dinosaurs that knew how to swim so a tsunami wouldn’t kill them, and if a volcano erupted Pangea would have been too big for it to reach all across the land.
One of these predictions had to happen because all dinosaurs got extinct. After the meteor, new life was made and humans were created thousands of years later. I think that it’s really amazing and interesting to study about the dinosaurs and learn about their life style, how they live and what they do. Since humans found out how dinosaurs got extinct, it has been very fascinating to study about it.
