Default Do Creationists Believe in Dinosaurs?

just a question, do creationists beleive in dinosaurs? it may sound like a stupid question, but the existance of dinosaurs conflicts with creationism. i'ce never actually asked a creationist this question before, so i don't know what to expect.

To the extent that creationism can be dealt with as a coherent position, that position in no way conflicts with the existence of dinosaurs.

I'm not sure how YECs explain the existence of dinosaurs. I would think the literal interpretation (whole world was made in 6 literal days) of the Bibical creation story would not jive with evidence we have of these creatures. If anyone has an explanation of how the two can co-exist please, tell us.

I beleive it is a creationist named Hovid that has a creation theme park in which one of the attractions is a "fossilized" set of dinosaur and human footprints. Though the exhibit is oviously fake, it shows one solution to the YEC problem.

the way i see that it conflicts with creation(adam and eve) is that dinosaurs lived over 65 million years ago, where according to the idea of creation, the earth and universe were created 6000 years ago(i'm not completely sure on the time but i think it was 6000 years so correct me if i'm wrong).

Some creationist believe dinosaurs still roam the earth today and claim to have seen them.
