Fossil evidence suggests dinosaurs thrived until asteroid impact
Originally Published 2 months ago — by Live Science
A new study of fossils from New Mexico shows that dinosaurs were thriving just before the asteroid impact that caused their extinction, suggesting they were in good health prior to the catastrophic event. The fossils, dated to within 340,000 years of the impact, indicate a diverse and healthy dinosaur ecosystem in the region, supporting the idea that the asteroid abruptly ended their prosperity.
