One early theory was that small mammals ate dinosaur eggs and another proposes that toxic angiosperms (flowering plants) killed them off. There are several other theories as to what caused the demise of the famous animals. Other animals and plant species had a shorter time-span between generations which allowed them to survive. The fallout would have created plumes of ash that likely covered all of the planet and made it impossible for dinosaurs to survive. With the projected size and impact velocity, the collision would have caused an enormous shock-wave and likely triggered seismic activity.

Scientific consensus now says that these two factors are linked and they were both probably caused by an enormous asteroid crashing to Earth. When this was dated, it coincided precisely with when the dinosaurs disappeared from the fossil record.Ī decade later, scientists uncovered the massive Chicxulub Crater at the tip of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, which dates to the period in question. This is an element that is rare on Earth but is found in vast quantities in space. In the 1980s, paleontologists discovered a layer of iridium. It was believed for many years that the changing climate destroyed the food chain of the huge reptiles. The Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event is the name given to this mass extinction. Dinosaurs ruled and dominated Earth around 66 million years ago, before they suddenly went extinct.
