The most recent and debatably best-known, the CretaceousâPaleogene extinction event, which occurred approximately 66 million years ago (Ma), was a large-scale mass extinction of animal and plant species in a geologically short period of time.
More birds evolved, and reptiles got bigger. Dinosaurs were still dominant, and carnivorous dinosaurs were more prevalent. At the end of the Cretaceous Period, and the end of the Mesozoic Era, came another mass extinction. This extinction is generally called the K-T Extinction.
