Dinosaur bones
Dinosaur bones. Computer artwork of dinosaur bones revealed by melting ice. The dinosaurs evolved in the Triassic Period (from 250 to 210 million years ago) and dominated life on Earth for more than 150 million years. They went extinct 65 million years ago, probably due to a large asteroid impact. They are known today only by the fossilized remains of their bones. Dinosaurs were reptiles and lived on the land. There was no major glaciation (increased ice cover) during the time of the dinosaurs, but continental drift can explain findings of tropical animal fossils in the polar regions

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing world of dinosaur bones, brought to life through computer artwork. The image reveals these ancient remnants emerging from melting ice, providing a glimpse into the awe-inspiring creatures that once roamed our planet. During the Triassic Period, spanning from 250 to 210 million years ago, dinosaurs evolved and reigned supreme for over 150 million years. However, their dominance came to an abrupt end approximately 65 million years ago when a colossal asteroid impact likely led to their extinction. Today, we can only comprehend these magnificent beings through fossilized remains like the ones depicted in this artwork. Dinosaurs were remarkable reptiles that inhabited terrestrial environments across Earth. Interestingly, although there was no significant glaciation during their era, continental drift offers an explanation for discovering tropical animal fossils in polar regions. The icy surroundings in this illustration symbolize both preservation and frozen time - encapsulating the essence of paleontology and its quest to unravel prehistoric mysteries. These preserved bones serve as invaluable clues about our planet's past inhabitants and offer insights into evolution itself. As we gaze upon this striking image by Science Photo Library, we are reminded of the immense scale on which dinosaurs existed and how they continue to captivate our imagination even millions of years after their demise.
