The Cretaceous–Paleogene (K-Pg) extinction, which wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, marked one of Earth’s most dramatic mass die-offs. Before this event, the planet thrived with dinosaurs, marine reptiles, and lush forests. Then, a six-mile-wide asteroid struck Mexico’s Yucatán at 43,200 mph, releasing energy beyond all human-made explosives combined and reshaping life on Earth. Unlike many species that survived the asteroid impact by having wide ranges or large broods, night lizards (family Xantusiidae) endured the K-Pg mass extinction despite their small broods and limited habitats, challenging existing theories of post-extinction...
