Nyssa of Traken asked Tegan Jovanka, a human, if dinosaurs were her ancestors, to which she replied that she hoped not.

(TV: Earthshock)
Traveling back to Earth in the year 2008, the Toclafane slaughtered their human ancestors. However, they were protected by the temporal reprecussions of this act by the Paradox machine created by the Saxon Master, beginning the Year That Never Was. (TV: The Sound of Drums/Last of the Time Lords)
