    We humans can no longer hang out with dinosaurs, but at a unique garden in Tasmania, Australia you can wander among the plant species they ate, flew over and trampled underfoot during the Jurassic era.
    It is the only garden in Australia, and one of just 14 in the world, that last month received a grant from the Global Genome Initiative run by the Smithsonian Institute to help preserve genetic plant material so the species never become extinct.
    "They're the plant equivalent of dinosaurs, and they are very far from being extinct," said Dr Tonia Cochran, managing director of the Inala Jurassic Garden in the south of the Island State.

    We never did hang out with dinosaurs. They went extinct long before we made our debut.

    Perhaps some humans can, in the Congo, according to reports of or from indigenous people there who have lived with them all their lives. Apparently at least there's a few (hundred or thousands?) small dinosaurs munching happily.

    The honest scientists are silenced, far outnumbered by the worldly ones working for money and prestige. Thus the thoughts prevail, falsely, that dinosours lived over 10,000 years ago. From all the honest and true records and evidence, nothing of the animal kingdom lived until it was created, thus less than 10,000 years ago, and humans also , made/created in God's Image.

    Quarraling doesn't work, of course, with those raised in the false religion(s) with evolution. They cannot usually recover = their whole lives are dependent upon such fairy tales as they were taught (even by the 'professionals').

    Actually, it simplifies things - makes it closer to the truth. Only complicates things for those who made up fairy tales as if something happened millions of years ago, instead of recently (less than 10,000 years). They have to keep re-writing their fairy tales to account for all the evidence against them.
