Existence of dinosaurs predates existence of the Alps

The Rockies and Alps are fold mountains which were formed due to the pushing up of the tectonic plates. This event happened about 30 to 40 million years ago. The dinosaurs roamed the Earth more than 65 million years ago, many million years before the existence of the Rockies or the Alps.
