period is real.

It is this time period: right here in the middle of the Mesozoic Era, between the Triassic

Period and the Cretaceous Period. Big words are cool. It started about 199 million years

ago and lasted about 54 million years. It’s also when pangea, the supercontinent, started

splitting apart.

The term Jurassic comes from the Jura Mountains where we first found rocks from this time

period, but you probably know it for being “The Age of Reptiles” - because Dinosaurs.

Like the stegosaurus, brachiosaurus and allosaurus, but sadly not the T-Rex. He came after the

Jurassic. Steven Spielberg is a liar. Also, bike’s can’t fly, unlike birds which first

appeared during the jurassic period.
