All dinosaurs had backbones, as did many animals that lived before the dinosaurs. The first backboned animal was a type of fish that lived more than 500 million years ago. The oldest Australian dinosaur that we have found so far is Rhoetosaurus, which lived in the Jurassic, about 150 million years ago.
