Dinosaurs are with names and it is also an educational element of this fun in coloring prehistoric animals.
Coloring Book Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs They appeared in the world over 200 million years ago. Most of them reached impressive sizes, as you will be able to see on the XXL coloring pages prepared for you. There are a lot of different kinds of species which we would like to describe here. The key division is into those living in water as well as those flying and the division into herbivorous and carnivorous. We would like to say a few words about each of them below. We encourage everyone to make this educational reading.
The earliest known dinosaurs appeared during the Triassic period (about 250 to 200 million years ago). They evolved into a highly diverse group of animals with a wide range of physical characteristics, including modern birds.
Contrary to what many people think, not all of these prehistoric animals lived in the same geological period. Stegosaurus, for example, lived in the late Jurassic period, about 150 million years ago. Tyrannosaurus rex lived in the late Cretaceous, about 72 million years ago. Stegosaurus went extinct 66 million years before Tyrannosaurus walked the Earth.
During the Mesozoic era, a species of these non-bird animals evolved into a species of avian dinosaur. This avian dinosaur is the first bird and the precursor of all birds. All non-bird animals became extinct 66 million years ago.
There are several theories about what may have contributed to the mass extinction of these animals at the end of the Cretaceous period. One certainty is that a powerful asteroid or comet struck the Earth during this time, causing a dramatic change in Earth's climate. Some scientists speculate that this impact had catastrophic consequences for life on Earth. But other factors, including changing sea levels and large-scale volcanic activity, may also have played a significant role in this mass extinction.
Dinosaur species
Tyrannosaurus - It is also known as T-rex. It was first found in excavations in 1902. Its average height is about 6 meters and length is over 14 meters. The weight of this individual was up to 8 tons, so it is quite a big size. It could run very fast.
Spinosaurus - We can of course find it on one of the coloring pages we have prepared for you. When it comes to its dimensions, its average length is 15 meters and its weight is slightly smaller than that of the previous reptile, but still impressive as it reaches around 5 tons.
Pterodactyl - This is probably the largest bird that lived on our planet Earth. Of course, he is also waiting for you in the coloring pages in this section that we have prepared especially for you.
Brontosaurus - is another of the great lizards that lived millions of years ago. Most of this species was found in what is now North America. The time of occurrence was over 150 million years ago. It was a very large individual, because the adult weighed about 2 5 tons, so it is a significant size. As far as its length is concerned this one reached more than 20 metres.
Brachiosaurus - They were herbivorous dinosaurs that had a very long neck and reached an enormous size compared to other individuals from millions of years ago. An adult individual could grow up to 30 meters long. Its weight of these largest creatures reached even up to 50 tons. Some scientists are of the opinion that this animal, because it was so large, had several hearts. Because this is practically the only possibility to distribute blood to such a large individual as he is.
Stegosaurus - is also this individual, which in particular was found on the continent of North America. It was a bit smaller than its predecessors, which in the above part of the article were mentioned, but still it is a very impressive size because it could reach almost 10 meters in length and up to 4 meters in height. However, when it comes to its weight it oscillates maximally to 5 tons.
