It is impossible to fix the dinosaurs' extinction to a specific year for several reasons:

  • There were no intelligent animals alive at the time of the dinosaurs, and so there were no calendars and no record keeping.
  • Even though dinosaurs are thought to have become extinct due to a single cataclysmic event, the actual extinction process itself likely took place over several years, decades, or even centuries.
  • Even if the extinction was confined to a single year, there is currently no means to date the extinction event that precisely.
