Kaitlyn,

Humans and dinosaurs have no relation. Humans are related to ancient hominids, which originated in Europe around 135,000 years ago. Dinosaurs evolved from some of the same reptiles that survived the Permian Extinction, which was the biggest extinction that ever took place. Dinosaurs are reptiles, and humans are mammals. Dinosaurs, however, are related to birds. In fact, they're so closely related, you could look out your window right now and see a nest of dinosaur right in a tree in your backyard! The similarities between dinosaurs and birds is extremely stunning. In fact, some scientists think birds evolved from dinosaurs. In contrast, humans, as stated earlier, came from hominids. So even though there is no relation between humans and dinosaurs, there is a relation between dinosaurs and birds, and hominids and humans.
