Roughly 65 million years ago, an asteroid is thought to have impacted with the earth and caused global climatic changes that brought about the extinction of the dinosaurs and the elevation of mammals to dominance.  It is fascinating to consider that had this event not happened, you might currently be a highly evolved reptile rather than an evolved primate; such a scenario was considered in science fiction works such as West of Eden by Harrison.  It is entirely worthy of consideration that higher sentient life forms on other worlds might be non-mammalian, perhaps like the reptilian Gorn of the Star Trek universe.  If we were reptilian, there wouldn’t be the endless obsession with how one’s hair looked…and rather than the breast fixation of human society, tails or coloration might be a drawing card in a reptilian-dominated world…
