Dawn of the Dinosaur Age presents the first act in the drama that
would become the Mesozoic Era, the Age of Reptiles. The rise of the
first dinosaurs is the story of opportunity and evolutionary
innovation. The first dinosaurs, after living in the shadows of
larger, more dominant reptilian kin, took advantage of major mass
extinctions at the end of the Triassic Period to take over niches
once occupied by their predecessors. In the course of doing so,
dinosaurs quickly radiated to widespread geographic ranges and
began an evolutionary course that led to the development of two
major groups of dinosaurs, the Saurischia and Ornithischia.The Late
Triassic and Early Jurassic Periods were a time of experimentation
in dinosaur evolution as the earliest herbivorous and predaceous
dinosaurs adapted increasingly specialized body forms and
lifestyles. ""Dawn of the Dinosaur Age"" explores the roots of the
dinosaur family tree and the lifestyle and radiation of the first
carnivorous and herbivorous dinosaurs.
