The mass extinction at the end of the Triassic period, 201 million years ago, was caused by extensive volcanic eruptions and a rapidly warming climate as the then-supercontinent Pangaea began to break apart. Global temperatures rose by at least 3–4 degrees Celsius. A new study in Nature Geoscience shows that widespread forest fires raged across the fern savannahs that spread following the die-off
