The Flood and the changes it caused in the environment are the main reason dinosaurs died off. However, sinful people may have caused dinosaur deaths in an even more direct way.
Man has often been responsible for killing the last animals of a kind. The mammoths and mastodons were wiped out by hunters. It could be that in the ancient time, people also killed dinosaurs for meat or because of the problems these animals caused. Maybe some killing was done just for sport.

"The Flood and the changes it caused in the environment are the main reason dinosaurs died off."No. There was no world-wide flood. Also, though dinosaurs died out about 65 million years ago, your Bible ridiculously claims the Flood was a few thousand years ago.
"However, sinful people may have caused dinosaur deaths in an even more direct way."
Homo sapiens (all humanoids for that matter) and dinosaurs missed each other by millions and millions of years.
"Man has often been responsible for killing the last animals of a kind."
Sadly, this is quite true.
"The mammoths and mastodons were wiped out by hunters."
That is unclear. I known that mammoths were hunted by early humans, but we don't know what actually caused the demise of the mammoth as a spesies.
"It could be that in the ancient time, people also killed dinosaurs for meat or because of the problems these animals caused."
Humans and dinosaurs (other than their bird descendents) were not living on earth at the same time.
"Maybe some killing was done just for sport."
When one is armed only with spears, one doesn't hunt mammoths or any other large, dangerous animals "for sport."
"It could be that in the ancient time, people also killed dinosaurs for meat or because of the problems these animals caused."
According to scientific facts there where no humans when the dinos lived!
Since they are not dinosors and humans living together, whose sins are causing their distruction?, the ones of the plants?, oh yeah, you're creationist, you think, even if they are not proofs, that they live together(even if you believe that because of the inerrancy of the Bible and the Bible NEVER mentions them)
Man kills animals by cutting down their homes, or introducing predators they cannot deal with, or polluting or poisoning the environment. It's not from wandering around all liquored up with your bang sticks and fanstasing about your sister in the shower.
Ok, I'm actually gonna leave the dinosaurs alone for this one.
My question is: how, just HOW, do you accept the existence of mammoths and mastodons, consider them as separate and immutable "kinds", and NOT recognize that they're related to elephants?!?!?
Confused?
