The responsibility of the extraterrestrial object in their disappearance has been a consensus within the scientific community, since the discovery of the gigantic impact crater in 1980 in Mexico. But paleontologists are arguing over whether this mass extinction came abruptly, or whether the meteorite only dealt the final blow to an already struggling group.
