The Allosaurus became extinct during the Late Jurassic period, approximately 150 million years ago. The exact cause of its extinction is still debated among scientists, but some theories suggest that changes in climate, competition with other predators, and possibly even disease could have played a role in the decline of the Allosaurus population.
