the paleocene epoch is in the paleogene time period.
The period after the Cretaceous is the Paleogene period, which is part of the Cenozoic era. It includes the Paleocene, Eocene, and Oligocene epochs.
The earliest saber toothed cats appeared about 23 million years ago. That was during the late Paleogene period. The Paleogene was the first period in the Cenozoic era.
I'm doing this for a Geography project and I'm supposed to make a poster on facts about the Paleogene period. I'm just looking for a few key events on this time :) xxx
The Cenozoic era is subdivided into two periods: the Paleogene and the Neogene. The Paleogene includes the Paleocene, Eocene, and Oligocene epochs, while the Neogene includes the Miocene and Pliocene epochs.
The saber toothed cat evolved 23 million years ago. That was during the late Paleogene period. The Paleogene period was the first period of the Cenozoic era.

The Cenozoic Era is divided into three periods: the Paleogene, the Neogene, and the Quaternary. The Paleogene includes the Paleocene, Eocene, and Oligocene epochs. The Neogene includes the Miocene and Pliocene epochs. The Quaternary includes the Pleistocene and Holocene epochs.
The Cenozoic era at about 65 million years ago. The Paleogene period.
They went extinct a little over 10,000 years ago.
The Cretaceous Paleogene extinction event about 65 million years ago.
The first members of the family Felidae appeared 25 million years ago in the late Paleogene period.
