All of the following have been suggested as answers to why the dinosaurs went extinct: an asteroid impact, overeating, starvation, indigestion, and climate change—and that’s just a few of the ideas! But the Bible gives us the proper framework for understanding their extinction.

When the dinosaurs got off the ark after the global flood, they entered a very different world. It was filled with new challenges—including an ice age! And, of course, human hunting was likely a factor too, now that humans had been told they could eat meat.

Dinosaurs went extinct for the same reasons creatures go extinct today—for example, changing environments, climates, and human hunting.
