Not mine. They're around 160 million years old apparently. They became extinct even without our help. Darwins theory seems legit. We'll all be getting dug out of rocks in another 100 million years with whatever the next dominant intelligent life is that develops on our rock. I wonder if they'll still be knocking lumps out of each other and squabbling over resources and land?

after the steaming mess that was Starfield I'm content with waiting 100 million years for some other sentient species to put out the Elder Scrolls series...

Intelligent life besides us is here, but not advanced enough for society to care.

Dolphins, orcas, octopuses, elephants, rats, parrots, crows, apes, chimps.... even tarantulas have a couple rungs on the ladder with the domestication of small frogs:
