For it to be 'proven' that carnivorous animals were on land before plants were it would have to be 'proven' that the geological time scale is correct and that rock layers represent different era's of geological time.
As a catastrophist however I don't believe the layers reperesent periods of time but are simply how mud, silt, animal and plant matter etc were deposited after the flood.
For example, evolutionists believe the Grand Canyone formed over million of years by gradual erosion due to the Colarado River. Thus layers at the bottom are millions of years older than those on the top.
I however believe the canyon was carved out in a matter of weeks following massive geological tectonic activity at the time of the flood.
Thus according to my interperation what rocks plants are found in merely reperesents the order they were buried in and has nothing whatsoever to do with geological time.
