Live Pterosaurs in America: Sightings of Apparent Pterosaurs in the United States
This is the first edition, before the expansions of newer editions. Look for the third edition.
Live "pterodactyls!" In the United States? Prepare for a shock if you thought they all died millions of years ago. In California, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Florida, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and many other states, eyewitnesses have been shocked by featherless creatures flying overhead. Many of the apparent living pterosaurs are much larger than any bat; Many have long tails; many have head crests. Where are the news headlines? How did living pterosaurs avoid the media spotlight? Rare and nocturnal, they have always lived here. But something else has hidden them. Enter now the realm of a new branch of cryptozoology, a struggling branch hampered by the dogma of universal extinction. Consider the words of ordinary Americans who fear ridicule but have still come forward with their extraordinary encounters with apparent living pterosaurs. Nonfiction.
The third edition is now available.
