Paleocene Information

The Paleocene Epoch (66–56 million years ago) was the first chapter of the Cenozoic Era, following the mass extinction that wiped out the non-avian dinosaurs. With the dinosaurs gone, mammals rapidly diversified, evolving from small, nocturnal creatures into larger and more specialized forms. The climate was warm and humid, with dense forests covering much of the planet. Early primates, rodents, and hoofed mammals appeared, while birds and reptiles, including crocodiles and turtles, thrived. In the oceans, sharks and early whales began to dominate. The Paleocene set the stage for the rise of modern mammal groups and the dramatic evolutionary changes of the Eocene.
