On land the vertebrates are

represented in the Triassic by amphibians and reptiles.
The first true mammals, which were very small, are supposed to appear in the Late Triassic.

other reptiles emerged to dominate the land, sea, and

sky.
The first birds and new varieties of reefbuilding and other invertebrate faunas, provided Jurassic life with added complexity.

100 million years ago Early Cretaceous Period
Cretaceous placentals, smaller

than those
of present-day ones, were poised to take over
the terrestrial environments
as soon as the dinosaurs vanished.

evolved during
the Cretaceous

This

group includes
the native species
of Australia,
kangaroos, koalas,
and the North
American
opossum.
