eldavojohn writes "Everyone's got their favorite theories of Dinosaur extinction but new speculation is rampant in a book that gives cause to believe it may have been disease carrying insects. Due to the length of their slow and eventual extinction (the "K-T Boundary"), it is argued that this would more likely be attributed to the spread of disease and the rise of parasitic insects like ticks or biting flies. Are our immune systems the only reason any animals survived?"
