Adam and Eve were created about 6000 years ago.
The Bible says that God created the animals the day before he created Adam and Eve.
The vast majority of books on dinosaurs are written from an evolutionary perspective which assumes that the dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago. The leading model for the demise of the dinosaur involves a large asteroid hitting the earth. Yet the most obvious alternative explanation is almost always ignored. Almost all fossils are the remains of creatures buried by water-borne sediment which has subsequently turned to rock. If this is due to the flood of worldwide extent, as the water flowed over all the land surfaces, animals would have been drowned and been buried by massive amounts of rapidly accumulating sediment. It is not all surprising to find a general lack of burial mixing between these very different kinds of animals due to local or ecological grouping.
Genesis 7:2 states that Noah saved two of every representative "kind" of land animal on the ark. Noah would have taken young specimens, not huge, older creatures. Dinosaurs would have emerged from the ark to inhabit an entirely different world. Instead of a warm, mild climate worldwide, they would have found a harsh climate which soon settled into an ice age. If climatic hardships did not cause the dinosaur's extinction, man's tendency to destroy probably did.
In the early 1900's on the Doheny expedition into the Grand Canyon, Indian cave drawings were found which closely resembled a duck-billed dinosaur. Legends from ancient China to ancient England have recorded descriptions of dinosaur-like creatures. The Kuku Yalanji aboriginal people have paintings which look exactly like plesiosaurs. These and other intriguing evidences seem to indicate that perhaps that age of the dinosaurs ended more recently than is commonly taught. Christians do not need to feel foolish about standing on Scripture in their understanding of the world around us. There is ample evidence to support the Biblical record. Evolution serves as the foundation basis for the religions of humanism and atheism. These world views are popular because man, instead of God, decides on rules and moral standards. Creation serves as the foundational basis for Christianity which acknowledges that all things were created by God, that we live in a fallen universe, and that it will be restored to perfection in the future.

probably around 6,000 - 10,000 years ago.

I think dinosaurs were created at the same time as Adam and Eve.


Info below from:

Dinosaurs and People:

We've already seen that, based on God creating both land animals and Adam on day six, that the Bible is saying that dinosaurs and people must have lived together.

Based on the Bible, is it possible that people and dinosaurs lived together? Wouldn't the dinosaurs just eat all the people?

The Bible tells us what animals, including dinosaurs, ate. During day six of creation God said: "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; and to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every green plant for food; and it was so." - Genesis 1:29-30 NASB)

God created Adam and Eve, and all the animals as vegetarians! All of the animals, including dinosaurs, eat plants.

But, what about those BIG, sharp teeth? Take T-Rex for example, certainly he was a meat eater.

Big, sharp teeth do not mean an animal is a meat eater. Bears have teeth that are big and sharp, similar to a lion's. Yet many bears are mostly vegetation. Chinese Pandas have very sharp teeth. They need those sharp teeth because bamboo, their only food, is very hard to chew. There are numerous examples of animals that only eat plants, and that have very sharp teeth. An animal with big, sharp teeth just means that it is an animal with big, sharp teeth--nothing more.

So, Adam and Eve did not have to worry about being eaten by dinosaurs.

By the way, it is in Genesis 9:3, after the flood, that God gives the animals to man as food. From that point on people started eating meat.

Wow, it is an engaging question. it can be a satire, yet i'm gonna manage it as though it fairly is severe using fact it fairly is totally evocative... once you're prepared to mould Biblical canon around many times-held scientific information, for that reason 'evolution', then definite, Adam and Eve have been apes. it is easily achieveable that human kin tree may well be traced decrease back to a woman and male ape. yet while so, you're able to understand that they belonged to a much better race of apes, and all of those different genes purely hit a ineffective end. those 2 lived everywhere from 2 million years in the past to 30,000 years in the past. it fairly is thoroughly impossible for us to pinpoint this genealogical 'bottleneck' at this factor, and we could by no skill be waiting to achieve this ... if those 2 even existed. yet i hit upon this sort of religious flexibility very admirable. there is not any reason that the assumption of 'God' can't co-exist with 'evolution'.

They were created about 4-5 thousand years ago by the writers of the old testament. Dinosaurs were around long before, but were not 'created'.

Adam and Eve may have been created as far back as the late neolithic period, but their story was recorded in the 7th Century BCE, by scribes in service to King Josiah as part of a propaganda effort to justify his imperialistic ambitions.

first of all the dinosaurs weren't created (they developed by natural evolution and got extinguished 65 million years ago)
and there are various theories about the origin of humans,
religious theory and natural evolution are the most popular ones
don't mix them,
the most probable scenario seems for me to be the natural evolution by random modification of DNA
which causes that individuals with better or more favourable features have better chances to reproduce themselves
they say that by the analysis of DNA they found out that the first human (homo sapiens sapiens)
lived 200,000 years ago in southern Africa.
He or she lived probably in a horde of its foregoing human species (homo erectus or whatever he is called) and
could survive long enough to reproduce himself/herself because of being better adapted and conditioned to life.
You can call the first human Adam or Eve, that is your choice.
I do not negate the religious theory - it just seems less probable to me.

They weren't created, nor real. Dinosaurs were, though.

They never were. That's Christian myth.
