They are not directly metioned. OF course Squirels, zebra, elephants and the United States is not mentioned either

Your post doesn't make a lot of sense.

You say that dinosaurs where in the bible, so obviously that would mean that they are mentioned, otherwise they can't be in the bible. Nes pas?

There are places where such creatures might be mentioned such as in Job and Genesis says that God created creatures according to their kind. You might like to observe that dinosaurs are found in remote places and not necessarily in the middle east or Europe so there would be no reason for the Israelites to mention them in the Old Testament. You might also note that the Bible refers to Lions and Bears in Canaan and they are no longer found there today. The Bible also refers to a race of very large people in Canaan and they are no longer found there today.

God has told us what he thinks we need to know, not what we would like to know.

Id also like to add that it was god that tasked Adam to name the animals. That alone infers that they weren't all named yet therefore there may be no mention of them directly. As paraclete put it so well.

Lot's of things aren't mentined that weren't understood by mid-east people of 2000-3000 years ago: the entire New World, for example. Obviously dinosaurs aren't mentioned in the bible because mankind didn't even know of their existence until the mid-1800's.
