Some creationists further believe that dinosaurs survived the Biblical flood since the Bible states that "every kind of land animal" did. [12] Creationists also tend to reject the fossil evidence that many non-avian dinosaurs were feathered, since this is among the evidence that birds descended from them through evolution. [14]
The Phanerozoic Eon (Greek: period of well-displayed life) marks the appearance in the fossil record of abundant, shell-forming and/or trace-making organisms. It is subdivided into three eras, the Paleozoic , Mesozoic and Cenozoic , with major mass extinctions at division points.

In the Christian Bible, Hebrew Torah and Islamic Quran, the antediluvian period begins with the Fall of the first man and woman, according to Genesis and ends with the destruction of all life on the earth except those saved with Noah in the ark (Noah and his wife, his three sons and their wives).
It included a Velociraptor attacking a Protoceratops, [172] providing evidence that dinosaurs did indeed attack each other. [173] Additional evidence for attacking live prey is the partially healed tail of an Edmontosaurus, a hadrosaurid dinosaur; the tail is damaged in such a way that shows the animal was bitten by a tyrannosaur but survived ...
Archeologists date the first writing, he notes, "at five or six thousand years ago, the exact period that the Bible tells us the soul of Adam, the neshama, was created." To Schroeder, who cites the Targum of Onkelos , Adam was the first man who could write, and the creation of Adam from more primitive man was a divine ensoulment.
Humans and avian dinosaurs currently coexist, but humans and non-avian dinosaurs did not coexist at any point. [158] The last of the non-avian dinosaurs died 66 million years ago in the course of the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, whereas the earliest members of the genus Homo (humans) evolved between 2.3 and 2.4 million years ago ...
“Evolving during the rule of the dinosaurs left a lasting legacy in mammals,” de Magalhães wrote. “For over 100 million years when dinosaurs were the dominant predators , mammals were ...
They first appeared in the fossil record around 66 million years ago, soon after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event that eliminated about three-quarters of plant and animal species on Earth, including most dinosaurs. [25] [26] One of the last Plesiadapiformes is Carpolestes simpsoni, having grasping digits but not forward-facing eyes.
