The Grand Canyon was formed by erosion, it's not the site of an impact event.
What is known about the K-T extinction event is roughly 65 million years ago, a 10 kilometer (6 miles) in diameter, object slammed into the Earth at extremely high speeds. Such a large impact would have had approximately the force of 100 trillion tons of TNT, i.e. about 2 million times as great as the most powerful thermonuclear bomb ever tested. The resulting Crater is known as Chicxulub Crater, and was found in the 1980's.
We also know at the this time there was a supermassive, ongoing volcanic eruption going on in India, known as the Deccan Traps, which certainly wouldn't have helped.
The resulting cataclysmic changes as a result of these events did not lend itself to a thriving global ecosystem.
As to why some species lived and others died off, that remains a bit of a mystery. Most surviving species tended to be small, warm blooded, and able to retreat in times of great distress.
That isn't the case for all though.

Lestat said:they were large animals that needed a lot of food to survive, environmental conditions severely displaces their food supply both for carnivores, herbivores, and omnivores, and they died off. Just like the wooly mammoth, sabertooth tiger, etc.
Some species DID survive, we still have snakes, aligators, and other reptiles that are decendants of dinosaurs

their environment did change but they didn't. evolution isn't real we just killed off most threatening species even homo-erectus. we hid after the meteor impact and fed off the carcasses.Rabid_Goose said:Why do they need to evolve? You only need to evolve when your surrounding environment is changing from what I understand, what has changed about how any of those animals live day to day?
And they died because you touch yourself at night.
I've never denied being unfair, but I'm also not a nationally syndicated movie.jackangel said:let me ask bran.
also, i think you are unfair to persians on a whole. or in a hole.

aliens taught the egyptians, god could be an alien, jessica would rather you show up at her house in person rather than stalker letters. You just have to outrun the security.Rabid_Goose said:The environment for insects really didn't change at all. If they fed off of waste then it was Pay Day for them.
I don't think their environment was hurt bad at all. If a creature can live in an area and still eat and breed then it won't change. Something has to weed out the gene pool for the ones with certain genetics, and it seems the whole line of them survived without a problem. Who knows, how did the Egyptians build the Pyramids, is there really a God, and why won't Jessica Simpson return my letters?
