"Prehistoric Bird"
These living creatures are not always called "dinosaur birds." Sometimes the eyewitness will say "prehistoric"
or "strange bird," but often, "pterodactyl."
" . . . knowing a 'dinosaur bird' flys over our heads should be shocking
. . . what about generations of teachings of extinction of dinosaurs and pterosaurs?"
"At the San
Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary, in . . . 2007, a man was driving north from the university . . . From the marshy area on his
left a very strange flying creature flew across the road, right in front of him, flying into the sanctuary." (So. California)
On a road from a ridge down to the coast, in 1971 on Bougainville, New Guinea, the truck took Brian Hennessy
and others through a tropical area that was strangely devoid of birds. Hennessy then saw the strange flying creature overhead, large
and with no sign of any feather. "Prehistoric" was the word that came up.
Years of investigations have validated the cryptozoologists who have been searching for "prehistoric birds" (mostly ropens) and interviewing
eyewitnesses. This long-tailed flying cryptid is seen around the world, but reports are common around New Guinea.
Jonathan Whitcomb, an American forensic videographer, interviewed many natives, in 2004, on Umboi lsland, Papua New Guinea.
Pterosaurs are not necessarily prehistoric and they are not birds. The name "prehistoric bird" is a layman's term for "pterosaur."
The Australian Brian Hennessy is a psychologist and a visiting lecturer in psychology to the Chongqing Medical University in China.
He also advises Chinese business leaders and others.
Before the Woetzel-Guessman expedition (Umboi Island) in late 2004, Jonathan Whitcomb explored part of the southern areas, interviewing
eyewitnesses of the giant flying creature they call "ropen." It is not literally a prehistoric bird, for it has no feathers. Cryptozoologists
like Whitcomb believe the ropen is a Rhamphorhynchoid pterosaur, notwithstanding Western cultural teachings about extinction.
During Paul Nation's 2002 expedition on Umboi, he made friends with important villagers, helping prepare for the more successful
work in the 2004 expeditions.
Paul Nation (here on the right during his 2002 expedition) is the most experienced field cryptozoologist that searches for living
pterosaurs in Papua New Guinea. His historic 2006 expedition deep in the mainland resulted in the first video evidence for the
strange bioluminescent glow of the flying creature called "indava." The footage was analyzed by a missile defense physicist. ...
The top sketch was approved by the psychologist Brian Hennessy as a fair approximation of the head of what he called the "prehistoric"
creature. The sketch below it was approved by the World War II veteran (1944 sighting) Duane Hodgkinson, now in Montana.
