I’m gonna agree and raise you: I think fungi took over the world before dinosaurs did. Think about it, the vast networks of mycorrhizae that allow for forests to exist is all fungus, some of the first standing organic structures on the planet were fungus, and when everything dies it gets consumed by fungus. Hell, there are radioactive fungi near Chernobyl that how found a way to consume the radiation as food. Fungi are wild.
