How dangerous is a flying dinosaurs?
The only real flying dinosaurs are birds, which can cause injuries but couldn't kill a person. What I believe you are referring to, however, are pterosaurs, which were not dinosaurs, but were flying reptiles. Most pterosaurs would have been the size of medium to very large birds, and would not be capable of killing a human. Some of the biggest pterosaurs include Pteranodon, Geosternbergia, and Quetzalcoatlus. Even though Quetzalcoatlus, the biggest of the three, had a wingspan of 33 feet and stood taller than a giraffe thanks to its long neck. However, it still weighed less than 550 lb. It might be capable of killing a human, but it's unlikely that it would have hunted prey as large as a human. As for Pteranodon and Geosternbergia, they ate fish, not terrestrial animals. Overall, I'd say large pterosaurs could defend themselves against humans, but would not attack them unprovoked.
Did flying birds coexist with land based dinosaurs?
Yes. The earliest birds evolved in the Late Jurassic and greatly diversified through the Cretaceous period, when the dinosaurs were still around.
The name of the first flying dinosaur?
No known species of dinosaur was ever able to fly despite birds being believed to have evolved from them. The flying reptiles such as the pterodactylus, tapejara, geosternbergia and ornithocheirus etc are collectively known as 'pterosaurs'. Their taxonomy is considered different from the dinosaurs. The largest of the pterosaurs to be discovered so far is the Quetzalcoatlus.

How would dinosaurs be treated if they still lived to this day?
With pesticides
Do other dinosaurs eat them?
One clade of dinosaurs, the theropods, were carnivorous. Many of them were large and ate other dinosaurs. Today, birds are the only surviving group of dinosaurs. Some birds of prey eat other birds, so dinosaurs still eat other dinosaurs today.
Are there any fliying dinasoure's?
Yes, there were, and still are, flying dinosaurs. Bird-like dinosaurs, theropods, evolved feather and eventually evolved the ability to fly. These feathered dinosaurs in turn evolved into birds, so technically, every bird you see is in fact a living dinosaur.
Did elephants live in the time of the dinosaurs?
Elephants are still living and can be found in Africa and Asia.
Can Dinosaurs stay in a reptile house?
Yes it would be possible for dinosaurs to be in a reptile house if they were still alive. I guess the bones could be in a reptile house but no real dinosaurs.
What would if dinosaurs never left the earth and lived with man?
Actually, we still have many Dinosaurs on the Earth. They are birds. The first bird was made from a Dinosaur.Actually, we still have many Dinosaurs on the Earth. They are birds. The first bird was made from a Dinosaur.
Do the dinosaurs is still live?
No there are no dinosaurs still living. However we have their ancestors, birds.
Is dinosaur a mammal?
No. In fact, dinosaurs are the ancestors of birds. Mammals separated from reptiles (a large group that still included what would become dinosaurs) about 300 million years ago, and birds evolved during the Jurassic period about 150 million years ago.
