The dinosaurs died millions of years ago before any other humans were alive. There was a large meteorite coming toward their direction and hit the land.

Therefore, all the dinosaurs were gone.


Why didn't dinosaurs attack humans?

No, it would have been impossible for humans to arise without the death of the dinosaurs. Actually, dinosaurs dominated the Earth for about 150 million years, which forced the mammals of the time to remain small and insignificant because dinosaurs occupied almost every ecological niche. Only when the dinosaurs became extinct, were mammals given more room to grow and diversify, allowing humans to eventually arise.

What humans attack shark moreoften dinosaurs become extinct?

The dinosaurs were extinct long before humans appeared on the earth. The dinosaurs were probably killed off when a giant meteor hit the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. The resulting debris from the impact that was put into the atmosphere, created conditions on earth, similar to a "nuclear winter". The dinosaurs could not cope with the sudden change to the earth's environment and died off. Humans fish for sharks, but, not enough to bring about their extinction. Sharks do attack humans, but, it's very rare and does not happen very often.
