Dinosaurs were a very successful type of organism who lived on Earth for many millions of years before something, probably a giant asteroid collision, wiped them out. Perhaps, in retrospect, being so extremely large made them vulnerable to certain types of environmental change, when smaller species proved to be more adaptable. Bigger is not always better. Notably, smaller species of feathered dinosaur did survive, and still exist today.

Why are dinosaurs a powerful tool in the move to discredit evolution?

Dinosaurs are actually a great way of PROVING evolution. The fossil record has shown many evolutionary pathways dinosaurs ventured down during their 165 million year reign. Fossil evidence has shown many species of theropods, or meat eating dinosaurs, had feathers and increasingly bird-like characteristics. New discoveries in China have furthered the link between dinosaur and bird, helping to prove that evolution isn't merely a theory, but is indeed a irrefutable FACT.


How do you evolve dinos on Mydinos beta?

In MyDinos Beta, you can evolve dinosaurs by gathering enough evolution points and resources, which can be obtained through battles, quests, or daily activities. Once you have the required materials, navigate to the evolution menu and select the dinosaur you wish to evolve. Confirm the evolution, and your dinosaur will transform into a more powerful version. Keep in mind that certain dinosaurs may have specific requirements for evolution.
