Why didn’t the dinosaurs recover?

1.30K views

Why didn’t the small post apocalypse survivor dinosaurs just refill the niches? Did the asteroid alter the planet in some way fundamentally different than the prior 200M years?

Edit: (collaborative clarification with my 5yo, with paraphrasing): Birds are boring dinosaurs. Why didn’t the big dinosaurs (non bird) come back? Why are there no mammal-sized (non bird) dinosaurs? (e.g., mouse through elephant-sized or even whale size)

Hey! there are some pretty cool dino birds
Have you heard of a Cassowary? Emu? Ostrich?

Unfortunately, Humans hunted Moa to extinction 🙁
