Torosaurus dinosaur in an icy landscape

Dinosaur extinction. Computer illustration of a Torosaurus dinosaur standing in an icy landscape. Some scientists believe that dinosaurs and many other creatures were made extinct by an increasingly cold and unstable climate at the end of the Cretaceous period (65 million years ago). This climatic change is thought to be partly due to volcanic eruptions and a large meteorite which struck the Earth. These threw large amounts of dust into the upper atmosphere and blocked out the warmth of the Sun

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a computer illustration of a Torosaurus dinosaur standing amidst an icy landscape. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the catastrophic event that led to the extinction of dinosaurs and numerous other creatures during the Cretaceous period, approximately 65 million years ago. Scientists have long debated the cause behind this mass extinction, and many theories point towards an increasingly cold and unstable climate. It is believed that volcanic eruptions and a colossal meteorite impact played significant roles in triggering this climatic change. These cataclysmic events released vast amounts of dust into the upper atmosphere, effectively blocking out the warmth of our Sun. The majestic Torosaurus depicted in this artwork represents one of these ancient beings that succumbed to their harsh environment. Its triceratops-like appearance evokes both awe and sympathy for these magnificent creatures who once roamed our planet. Through its intricate details and realistic portrayal, this art piece invites us to reflect on the delicate balance between life and nature's forces. It prompts us to contemplate how even seemingly invincible species can be vulnerable when faced with dramatic shifts in their environment. Science Photo Library has beautifully captured not only the scientific significance but also the artistic essence within this image, offering viewers a glimpse into Earth's tumultuous past while igniting curiosity about our planet's future.
