THEM: The Dinosaur Age 他们:恐龙时代 图:赵闯 文:杨杨 Chapter 1 · The Lonesome Triassic Period Ranging from roughly 250 million to 201 million years ago, all of the earth was in the time period known as the Triassic Period. At that time, the earth was only populated by a piece of land called Pangaea, which was enwrapped by the vast sea. Since the landmass of Pangaea was extremely broad and spacious, the moisturizing ocean air could not reach the center of the continent, which was then turned into a large desert, with the weather being unusually dry and scorchingly hot. Other parts of the continent, however, remained warm and humid. This included the two poles of the earth, which were not yet covered by glaciers. Under these unique climatic conditions, the ferns and the coniferous plants of the continent were increasingly flourishing. Such a preferential climatic environment has facilitated the gradual recovery of all kinds of life after the disaster of the Permian extinction. And dinosaurs were on the rise, getting ready to take over the world in the near future. However, they were still weak and vulnerable. To achieve such a goal, they must put forth a huge effort. On the way to realizing such a dream, silhouettes of their lone figures can be seen across the landscape. To be continued 第一章 · 孤独的三叠纪 距今约 2.5亿年前至 2.01亿年前,地球所处的时代被称为三叠纪。 那时的地球只有一块名叫盘古大陆的陆地,浩瀚的大海将它包裹其中。 盘古大陆十分广阔,海洋的湿气并不能影响到深邃的大陆中心。在陆地中间形成了一个巨大的沙漠,那里异常干燥、炙热。但是大陆其他部分的气候仍然温暖湿润,并且,这种感觉一直延续到地球的两极,那里并没有冰川覆盖。 在得天独厚的气候条件下,蕨类植物和针叶植物等日渐繁盛。 良好的气候环境,让各种生命在经过二叠纪大灭绝的灾难之后,渐渐开始复苏。恐龙逐渐兴起,将要在日后成长为地球陆地上的霸主。 只是,它们尚且弱小,想要实现这样的目标,必然需要付出巨大的努力。在通往梦想的道路上,到处可见它们孤独的身影。 未完待续
