About me: This is my first serious story, so I'm in no way experienced in writing. I will only except constructive criticism, and destructive criticism will be ignored, so be polite and understandable when criticising this.

About the story:
Quick run down. This takes place in the aftermath of the KPG impact and when the last of the non Avian dinosaurs in Hell Creek were dieing off, in that short period, I value accuracy over most things though I will take creative liberties, such as some larger mammals, showing the replacement of dinosaurs over time.

About Hell Creek:
Hell Creek is a very well known fossil formation from the late Cretaceous. It was home to creatures like Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops, though smaller ones such as Dakotaraptor steini and Acheroraptor temertyorum. It was a rich floodplain until the KPG Impact, which it quickly turned into a frozen barren wasteland.

Fauna in the story:

Dakotaraptor steini: 5-6 meters long, and 420 kg

Tyrannosaurus rex: last of his kind, 11-12.5 meters long, 6,000-8,800 kg

Triceratops prorsus: 9 meters long, 10,000 kg

Anzu wyliei: 5 meters long, 400 kg

Acheroraptor temertyorum: 2 meters long, 60 kg

Stigymoloch/Pachycephalosaurs spinifer: 3 meters long, 350 kg

Leptoceratops gracilis: 2 meters long, 100 kg

Corpses/Skeletons:
Denversaurus schlessmani (Corpses + Skeletons)
Ankylosaurus magniventrix (Corpses)
Torosaurus latus (Skeletons)
Edmontosaurus annectens (skeletons+corpses)
Struthiomimus sedens (Corpses)
