the world was ruled by pig-like creatures for a million years... around 260 million years ago -- when the creatures called lystrosaurs were the few survivors of a mass extinction. Nearly 95 pct of the living species were destroyed by a series of volcanic eruptions...
Nope, it was an impact of a space rock.
Many thanks to decimon. I've pen wondering whether they ever had wings, so I ham a little disappointed that there's no information about that.

Lystrosaurus is a Triassic dicynodont who had survived the Permian extinction. It has been found in Asia, Africa, South America, and even Antarctica. It is very common in the early Triassic and at one time may have represented half the life on earth.
