From the Latin for "terrible lizard", dinosaurs are an apobaraminic group of large lizard kinds who lived in abundance on Earth in pre-Noachian times.
Old-Earth Evolutionists believe that dinosaurs roamed the planet between 230 million and 65 million years ago, having "evolved" from presumed "proto-dinosaurs" before the creation of Man, and are now all extinct, except those who "evolved" into birds.
Creation scientists believe, based on archeological and Biblical evidences, that dinosaurs were created on the 6th day of the Creation Week, between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago; that they lived in the Garden of Eden in harmony with other animals, eating only plants; that pairs of various dinosaur baramins were taken onto Noah's Ark during the Great Flood and were preserved from drowning; that fossilized dinosaur bones originated during the mass killing of the Flood; and that some descendants of those dinosaurs taken aboard the Ark still roam the earth today.
Dinosaurs are not explicitly mentioned in the Bible, although the behemoth in Job and the leviathan in Isaiah are considered by some researchers to represent the brachiosaurus and kronosaurus respectively. [1]
