Moving away from his earlier belief in a short, catastrophic history of the Earth, Buckland's treatise envisages instead and propounds the theory of a course of progressive change that occurred as the Earth gradually cooled and became ready for human occupation. During this time, the creatures that first walked the Earth did not die out because they were poorly designed; God loved the dinosaurs and had adapted them to their various circumstances.

Extinct creatures did not die out because they were poorly designed; God loved the dinosaurs and had adapted them to their various circumstances.
