Why did God get rid of the Trilobites?
Because he chose the process of trial and error in which he just creates animals to destroy them over and over again for billions of years, just so he can create humans after wiping out 99.99% of all animals that ever lived.
I know, a very stupid and inefficient process for a supposedly intelligent creator, but also keep in mind that he is perfect.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
