If you, or someone you know, has seen an apparent living pterosaur, please contact me, Jonathan Whitcomb.
With only one exception, all of my videos on this channel are entirely about modern pterosaurs. Protect Animal Life has grown slowly over the first ten months, since its inception early in 2019, as devoted followers subscribe one by one, yet the great majority of comments have been positive, and comments number in the hundreds.
Of the forty videos on this channel as of January 16, 2020, some of them are about sightings of non-extinct “pterodactyls” in the United States, including (but not limited to) the following states:
Pterosaur Sightings in South Carolina
The four reports from S.C.:
- Bishopville, 1984: wingspan about 10-14 feet; no feathers; standing in the middle of a country road, it appeared to be at least 10 feet tall.
- In that same general area, about two years later, Susan Wooten witnessed a huge flying creature: “as big as any car and had NO feathers.”
- Clinton, about 1994: “I saw a pterosaur as big as a plane, and looked very similar to the sketch created by Susan Wooten.”
- Rock Hill area of South Carolina, 2000: “It flew over me & my dog & made a terrifying call.”

Pterodactyl Sightings in Los Angeles
The five reports from L.A. County:
- Lakewood, California, June 19, 2012: The lady clearly saw the flying creature . . . The “dragon-pterodactyl” sat on a phone line near a storm channel.
- Same location as #1 above, 2009: The sister of the eyewitness of #1 sighting saw a dragon-like flying creature near the same location. She told nobody about her sighting until after she had learned about her sister’s encounter.
- Three “dragons” flew over the I-5 freeway in Los Angeles, just east of Griffith Park, in March of 2013.
- Just a few weeks after sighting #3, and less than two miles away, Devon Rhodriquez saw a strange flying creature: “not a feather in sight.”
- To the west of Griffith Park (on the other side of it), on March 24, 2018, another eyewitness encountered what may have been the same species as was seen by eyewitnesses #3 and #4. “I saw what I would call a pterosaur.”

Ropen Bioluminescence (Youtube video)
You can watch this short video (3 min, 20 sec), so rather than list what’s in it, I’ll go into more details about these flying lights by answering three questions that are based upon comments people have sent me over the years.
