The current era is Cenozoic era. The preceding era was Mesozoic era.

Precambrian Paleozoic Cenozoic Mesozoic what occurred just before the current era?

Just before the current era, which is the Cenozoic, the Mesozoic Era occurred. The Mesozoic, often called the "Age of Reptiles," lasted from about 252 to 66 million years ago and is characterized by the dominance of dinosaurs and the appearance of the first mammals and birds. It ended with a mass extinction event, likely caused by an asteroid impact, leading to the extinction of many species, including the dinosaurs. This transition paved the way for the rise of mammals and the eventual development of modern ecosystems in the Cenozoic Era.
