For a moment, I thought Dino Demise was a 50’s doo wop or lounge singer.

Hmmmmm....so it wasn’t a comet that did the dinosaurs in but an evil plot by the mammalian vermin to control the ‘hood...;^

[Psycho_Bunny]

lolol.....This is hardly new information.

I thought it was about Dino Rossi finally retiring.

Funny how the mind works, I first read that as Dom DeLuise.

So it is okay for an animal to become extinct for another will quickly fill the vacant niche and thrive?

"For the first 140 million years of their evolutionary history, mammals were basically vermin"

So, democrats are mammals that never evolved?

I've always been intrigued by the complete absence of dino fossils at the 65 million year old extinction layer.

Literally, there have been zero dinosaur fossils found in that layer.

I agree, fossil formation and discovery is quite rare.

But you'd think someone would have found something by now if tens of millions of dinosaurs all died at the same time.

I still deny Evolution.

“The maximum size of mammals leveled off about 25 million years later, or 40 million years ago, because of external limits set by temperature and land area”

This explains childhood obesity being on the increase. Global warming has triggered the process again and no amount of fruits and veggies can slow it down!

Gee, Mrs. Obama must be bumming over this news.

On first glance, I thought the headline was about a particularly messy and dramatic way of removing whale carcasses from beaches.

[RoadTest]

Nice story. But it’s filed under “fiction”.

[pabianice]

Yes. Those peaceful Native Americans massacred to extinction every large American mammal except for the bison.

Mammals around the world exploded in size after the major extinction at the end of the Cretaceous period

Boy, did they ever.
