Dinosaurs lived between 230 and 65 million years ago, in a time known as the Mesozoic Era. This was many millions of years before the first modern humans, Homo sapiens, appeared. Scientists divide the Mesozoic Era into three periods: the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous. During this time, the land gradually split up from one huge continent into smaller ones. The associated changes in the climate and vegetation affected how dinosaurs evolved.
146 to 65 million years ago. 1  Pangaea continued to separate into smaller continents. 2  A wide variety of dinosaurs roamed the land. 3  Birds flourished and spread all over the globe. 4  Flowering plants developed. 5  Mammals flourished. 6  Dinosaurs became extinct by the end of the period. The extinction, the second largest of all time, marked the end of the Age of Reptiles and the beginning of the Age of Mammals. Dinosaurs that lived during the Cretaceous period include:
