==Species==
Dinosaur Land (specifically Yoshi's Island) is primarily inhabited by Yoshis. As for the other native species, it is unknown what creatures already lived in Dinosaur Land and what creatures came there when Bowser's forces attacked the islands. During Mario's stay in Dinosaur Land, Koopas, Goombas, as well as inorganic creatures like Thwomps and Bullet Bills. 
Despite the name, this place has a few other dinosaur species. Most of the inhabitants are not dinosaurs (including Koopas and Goombas). The only other dinosaur species found on the island are Blarggs, Dino-Rhinos, Dino-Torches, Rexes, and Reznors. However, the reason why it is called "Dinosaur Land" is because it is inhabited by Yoshis.
