I call my young channel “PAL” and here list its seventeen public videos that are mainly about living pterosaurs, ordered by most recently uploaded (at the top), with video lengths in minutes and seconds:
- “Living Pterosaurs – about this channel” – 0:51
- “Living Pterosaurs – part 1” – 6:53
- “Modern Pterosaurs in a Scientific Paper” – 4:38
- “Pterodactyl Book for Kids and Teens” – 2:05

Another video to see on this channel is “People of Umboi – Island of the Ropen” (even though most of it is about the natives, rather than the ropen), not listed in the above videos. I’ve published videos related to Papua New Guinea before, but this one has clips not likely to be seen elsewhere.

Video channel trailer – living pterosaurs
A very short Youtube video that introduces the channel

I recently looked at the first few minutes of a Youtube video criticizing ideas about modern living pterosaurs. I’ll not here mention the name of the video or the pen name of the person responsible, for a number of reasons. I will reply to one of the weaknesses in that video.

Pterodactyl Sightings in California
On the channel “Protect Animal Life,” this is a playlist having two videos: “Giant Pterodactyl in California” and “Pterodactyl Sightings in Los Angeles.”

Cryptozoologist Garth Guessman (left) interviewed the eyewitness Duane Hodgkinson, a World War II veteran, in Montana in 2005. Hodgkinson and his army buddy had witnessed a huge “pterodactyl,” at close range, in a small jungle clearing in New Guinea, in 1944.

Pterosaur sightings in California
Some of the names used by eyewitnesses include ‘flying dinosaur’ and ‘prehistoric bird’ and ‘dinosaur bird,’ although the correct technical name for them is ‘pterosaur.’

This is about an animal that people around the world have seen, a creature whose page was deleted from the English Wikipedia in August of 2014, apparently after a few persons became offended because of what they thought about the religious beliefs of some of the American explorers who had searched for that animal in Papua New Guinea. This nocturnal flying creature is the ropen. I am one of those explorers.

Two sightings of apparent living pterosaurs we now consider, both in Kansas, the first recorded in more detail in my book Live Pterosaurs in America (The third edition of this non-fiction cryptozoology book is now available on Amazon).
