Lasted for 150 m years; wiped out by outer space 'debris'.
Good ol' humans around for less than one million years and our present very high standard of living has been enjoyed by only the 'lucky' wealthy section for 100 years. And that very wealth is their/our undoing - fossil fuels are making fossil fools of us all!
350 millions to form them. Good ol' English speaking world, plus Europe, China and Russia are ripping through the lot in less than 350 years! Even if our ailing life support systems can last out to 2100.
Is this poetic justice? We look down our noses at how unsuccessful the dinosaurs were but we, modern day know-alls on earth are the very ones who have not a clue how to live sustainably. But the dinosaurs DID!
