Dinosaurs appeared between the end of the Middle Triassic period and early Triassic, some 200 million years ago. There are several hypotheses about its extinction. According to one of them would have disappeared as a result of a large asteroid impact on Earth some 65 million years, which caused profound climate changes that could not adapt. Other scientists argue that you may not have been able to survive because of its immense size, which limited their ability to defend and fight for food. Nor is possible that the geological changes that built the great mountain ranges like the Alps, the Pyrenees and the Rockies ", with resulting climatic variations, have finished with them.
