Well there are plenty of reasons, but the one on which scientists insist is once a very large metior hit somewhere near southern arizona and broght a sudden climate change which they could not survive. Another theory is that due to a large volcanic erruption and all the sulphor went to the atmosphere suddenly the temperature fell down as sunlight could not pass through the thick mist of sulphur cloud. And Ice age (Not the 10000 yeras ago one but earlier to that) started which resulted in dinosaur destruction

Well the dinosaurs did not disappear...they died off.
The dinosaurs became extinct because a large meteor hit the Yucatan peninsula (I don't think its Arizona, but I could be wrong...) any way, anything that didn't die because of the impact died because, when the dust and debris kicked up, it blocked the sun. All plant life died because they couldn't carry out photosynthesis. The animals that relied on the plants died because they had no source of food. The other animals suffocated because of the noxious toxins and lack of oxygen in the atmosphere. And of course the climate changed as the planet could not receive sunlight.
Another theory is that dinosaurs never existed...but i don't think that is likely...

It is believed that Dinosaur died of starvation, due to sudden climatic change. The Event is known as disappearance of the Dinosaurs.
There are a few theories put up by some pundits. I do believe in climate change theory as the best possible reason.
But that by it self leads us to, yet another dead end.
But.
Which can now be explain by the fact that the climate change had to be very sudden.
How did this sudden climate change happen?
The answer lies in few theories.
The most appealing theory to me is the fact that, now we have definite evidence of a very large meteor hitting the earth, that event produced a humongous cloud of dust that stayed over the earth for long enough time to kill/alter most of the vegetation and produce vast change in climate, caused a very long lasting cold wave, this interrupted the food chain of many spices including the dinosaur.
Some spices must have died in an initial impact but some must have died due to starvation and some must have died as a direct result of sudden climatic change(cold climate).

well, the coming of the iceage is marked as the most probable reason 4 the disappearence of dinosaurs.
they could not stand such heavy (and chilled) climate change
not being able 2 adapt fast enuff, they disappeared.

"Why did THE dinosaurs disappear".
Anyway everybody knows they were transported back on to the Mother Ship and went back to their home planet.
