Why don't dinos exist anymore?

Nobody knows for sure, but scientists have several theories that try to explain the extinction of the dinos 65 million years ago. Some feel that the volcanic eruptions, epidemics, or radiation effects of a star may have destroyed _________ animals. The most widely accepted theory is that they disappeared after an asteroid crashed to Earth. The celestial body would have crashed into the Earth, causing it to be covered by an immense cloud of dust. This would have blocked sunlight for years, clearing much of the vegetation and killing the larger animals from hunger and cold.
