"The Predator's Edge: Could Competition and Predation Have Driven Dinosaurs to Extinction?"

The extinction of dinosaurs may not have been due to a single catastrophic event, but rather a series of pressures that slowly eroded their dominance. Among these pressures, increased competition and predation stand out. As new species evolved and ecosystems became more crowded, dinosaurs faced greater challenges in finding food, securing territory, and avoiding predators. This intense competition, coupled with predation from emerging species, may have gradually worn down dinosaur populations, contributing to their eventual extinction. This blog examines how these biological factors could have been the silent forces that led to the end of the dinosaur era.
