Ya know, I disagree with the theory that the dinosaurs were wiped out in one cataclysm.

What would seem more likely, according to the evidence we keep finding, is that it happened in chunks and pieces over time.

That may be why there are drawings found of giant reptiles and mammals in action. Real-life experience or tribal legend.

Maybe man walked with the dinosaurs. But there were darn few of them and only in certain climates.

Large mammals are fairly recent in time, as was the cataclysmic event that killed them. I suspect large lizard like things were killed off at the same time, but because the weren't preserved under an ice cap like the Berezovka Mammoth and other animal remains found with them, remnants of these warmer climate "dinosaurs" decayed a vanished long ago, leaving only the odd bits and pieces here and there for wild imaginations to create huge monsters out of.

Dima, Baby Mammoth. In 1977, the first of two complete baby mammoths was found—a 6–12-month-old male named “Dima.” His flattened, emaciated, but well-preserved body was enclosed in a lens of ice, 6 feet below the surface of a gentle mountainous slope. “Portions of the ice were clear and others quite brownish yellow with mineral and organic particles.” Silt, clay, and small particles of gravel were found throughout his digestive and respiratory tracts (trachea, bronchi, and lungs). These details are important clues in understanding frozen mammoths.

There things are 4-6 thousand years old. Not 65 million. They didn't die then get buried by snow, otherwize their flesh would have suffered cellular degradation from slow cooling, and would have completely decayed with contact to warm earth. They were frozen instantly, flash frozen, with the tropical vegetation still in their mouths and stomachs.

These make the global warming alarmists really mad, because these are proof the arctic was not frozen a mere 4-6 thousand years ago. It was a warm tropical place.

The Siberians are using the tons of ivory they find, perfectly preserved, for carving. That wouldn't be possible if they were millions of years old. Ivory unless well cared for, becomes useless for carving after only being left exposed to the elements for less than a year.

They are also using timber which is being released by the melting ice they were frozen in for those few thousand years, as if it were cut down yesterday. Tropical furs and cedars that no longer exist there today.
