| | '''Dinosaurs''' are reptilian creatures that have appeared in many [[Mario]] games. The variety of dinosaur species is very diverse. Dinosaurs live in all types of biomes which they are well suited for. Some dinosaurs may be very delicate and solemn. On the other hand some dinosaurs are very vicious and intelligent such as [[Reznor]] who also happens to have the deadly ability to spew fire balls. Many types of dinosaurs live on the [[Mushroom Planet]]. Dinosaurs also used to live in the [[Earth|real world]] for 165 million years, but have long been dead for 65 million years. This is because of the devastating effects of an [[asteroid]] that struck the Earth; today you can still see the fossils of the dinosaurs and other extinct animals. |

| ==History== | | =="Dino World"== |
| ===''Super Mario'' series===
| | In the ''[[Super Mario Bros. (film)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' live-action film, an alternate, unnamed version of [[Earth]] is revealed to exist; this parallel Earth was brought into creation when a meteorite struck the true Earth, causing spatial and dimensional disturbances, resulting in the creation of the alternate Earth, which the dinosaurs, at least those who weren't killed, and a few other creatures were flung to. |
| ====''Super Mario World''====

| ''[[Super Mario World]]'' takes place in [[Dinosaur Land]], and is filled with many dinosaur-like creatures, such as [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s, [[Rex]]es, [[Reznor]]s, [[Blargg]]s, and [[Dino Rhino|Dino-Rhino]]s. | |
