yes, i think you hit the nail on the head right there.....they were not able to enter noah's ark. you see, he had just enough space for the billions of animals from the seven continents, but had neglected to build enough space for the dinosaurs. it was a slip of mind that cost them their lives. noah was a good man, but who can remember those dinosaurs? i don't blame him at all. big up noah.

noah's arc? LOL.
Ok. first off, thsat Noah's Arc never happened. the entire idea is impossible. Any rational thinking person could tell you that. OR ask ANY scientist of ANY subject.
Second, the fact that the dinosaurs died out proves they were not the fitest. It wasnt a meteor shower, it was a single meteor. The ones that survived it, "the fitest" were the mammals. smaller animals were the fitest. They didnt need 1000's of pounds of vegatation a day to survive. they didnt need constant sunlight or heat to survive either. Reptiles are ectothermic (cold-blooded), they need light and heat from a different source other thatn thier body. Mammals do not, they are endothermic (warm blooded). It is a pretty easy concept to understand.

I am totally flabbergasted at the level of intelligence exhibited here. It's been commonly accepted by most in the scientific community that a meteor 6 miles wide hit the Yucatan peninsula 6 million years ago. The resulting ash cloud cover caused by this collision wiped out 90% of all the life on this planet because food became very scarce. The animals that survived were either sea creatures or small mammals buried deep in the ground. There is physical evidence that supports all this. Noah's ark? Give me a break.

The meteor theory does not add up. however if you look around you there are a lot of creatures that are still alive that have been around since the dinosaurs ages. Most of the surviving dinosaurs are smaller creatures . If you look at birds they look just like most dinosaurs.Most of the surviving dinosaurs where the smaller creatures. Which common sense would tell you it was probably a food problem .As creatures evolve they tend to become smaller .It was probably a slow process. Its just like they say all those craters on the moon were caused by meteors. You mean all those meteors hit the moon perfectly up and down. None of them hit at an angle

There are alot of theories to lead to believing that a meteor hit Earth about 65 million years ago, causing the dinosaurs to become extinct. Alot of animals who survived lived under water and were able to survive, one like the crocodile and alligator, and some sharks and whales, whose spiecies survived this catastrophie. Alot of animals evolved as their main hunter didn't exist and they were the strongest. Some adapted to the environment they were in, like the Galapagos Islands, there are some lizards there that swim in sea water. They are the only lizards in the world to do this.
Other theories state that the climate changed, Antarctica was a continent full of life,according to the fossils they found there. The found fosilised leaves proving that there was a rain forrests there. I don't think we will know for definite...

This can be viewed simply. Dinos were very fit. They lived for a long time in many instances changing very little. Their fitness is based on the "rules" that they lived under. When the rules change their fitness is no longer as strong. Whatever happened changed(meteor, volcano etc) the rules and the creatures that went on were already possessing the ability to play by the new rules.
You might be good at your job but if the needs of the job change you either change with it or get fired!
Noah's ark is a story meant to give meaning to an idea. It's a great story and part of our human heritage.

It seems there were drastic environmental changes which lead to the demise of the dinosaurs but the exact cause of the changes is unknown. It could have been a large meteorite combined with other things.
Survival of the fittest is often mis-interpreted by people to mean the physically strongest things survive but if you look around you'll see this isn't what is meant. Those things that can survive by any means, ,whether they are strong or weak, as long as they are not so weak they just plain die, will survive. That is what it means.

you're mistakenly assuming that each physique mutations are unfavourable. Environmental tension does weed out the deleterious mutations. even though it additionally favors the mutations that are constructive, and it is the place evolution happens. "Favorable" and "destructive" are with appreciate to the environmental tension. devoid of this tension, greater mutations may be *impartial*. greater environmental tension potential greater mutations are favorable AND greater are destructive. case in point, think of that being tall is efficient interior the present ecosystem. A mutation that makes human beings shorter will die out, yet so will the no-mutation state of generic top, on a similar time as a mutation that makes human beings taller will stay to tell the story. human beings will evolve to be taller. interior the absence of environmental tension, there is not any preferential survival. short human beings, tall human beings, and the overpowering majority who're of generic top all have an equivalent threat at survival. the generic top of the inhabitants would not replace. there is greater type interior the inhabitants, yet no evolution. As for different variations of people, that demands populations to be genetically remoted. Now that diverse races intermarry so often, the effectual inhabitants is the entire species.

They were fit until the rules suddenly changed. Large animals fared poorly when a large meteor caused a major climactic shift and food became scarce.
If you're going to be a Biblical literalist, Noah followed the command of God to collect two of all creatures, so dinosaurs went extinct before or after the flood.

The ice age was caused by the dust being thrown up in the air after the comet (more likely that a meteorite) hit the earth larger dinosaurs anything bigger that a dog died out due to lack of sunlight and major sources of food dying out. smaller animals survived as they required less food to survive.
As for noahs arc?? ITS A STORY NOT TRUE.

There is a lot of speculation on exactly what killed the prehistoric animals. Some say a meteorite hit the earth that caused poisonous gasses to escape, and kill everything above ground.
Others say that the ice age killed them.
I believe that dinosaurs was extinct before Noah's ark, and thus has nothing to do with the Great Flood.
