Format: DIN A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm)Only available in German!Although they became extinct around 65 million years ago, dinosaurs are among the most impressive animals that have ever inhabited the Earth. This poster introduces different dinosaurs, shows their relationships, when they lived and how the giants of prehistoric times are classified today in the family system of land vertebrates. Nine main groups are presented individually using illustrative pictures of selected species in their natural environment. Their distribution is shown by means of world maps indicating the location of the continents during their lifetime. The best-known generic names are listed according to subgroups. We take great care to reflect the current state of scientific knowledge.The role of birds is particularly interesting. Although it was recognized as early as 1861 with the well-known “primeval bird” Archaeopteryx that birds are indeed closely related to reptiles, it took until the 1990s before it became clear that they are a surviving lineage of dinosaurs. Today we know the path from dinosaur to bird was a journey of many small steps. With each discovery, it becomes increasingly difficult to make the almost arbitrary decision as to what is a bird and what is a dinosaur. Because dinosaurs and birds cannot be separated evolutionarily, they also belong on a modern dinosaur poster.
