What did the dinosaurs look like? Triceratops
When did dinosaurs disappear? • Evolutionists say 65 million years ago when a meteor hit the earth, changing the atmosphere, making it too cold, and their food supply died off. • Creationists say the flood wiped out most of the dinosaurs.
Conclusion • We know dinosaurs were here because we have found: • Footprints • Bones • Dinosaurs came in different sizes. • Paleontologists have used their imaginations based on fossilized remains. • Dinosaurs are extinct because: • Meteorite hit the earth and changed the living conditions so much that they died. • A flood killed most of them, and/or their food supply was destroyed, and they died.
