Paleontologists have identified over 500 different genera and 1,000 species of non-avian dinosaurs.
They are found in salamanders, and in some non-avian dinosaurs.
However, all non-avian dinosaurs as well as many groups of birds did suddenly become extinct approximately 66 million years ago.
The family Dromaeosauridae, traditionally considered to be non-avian dinosaurs, have been included in this group by at least one author.
Though the non-avian dinosaurs were gone, the mammals, and other land animals remained small, none bigger than a large domestic cat.
Origin of avian genome size and structure in non-avian dinosaurs.
How long did it take for the dinosaurs (at least the non-avian dinosaurs)to die out completely?
Several non-avian dinosaurs had feathers on their limbs that would not have functioned for flight.
The majority of non-avian dinosaurs became extinct during that time.
This suggests that at least some non-avian dinosaurs were warm-blooded.
