Dinosaur kangaroos spotted in Chile

Authorities are puzzled in Chile after a number of motorists reported seeing strange creatures resembling dinosaur kangaroos.

The reports describe creatures more than two metres tall on a road north of Santiago, reports UOL Noticias Populares.

The sightings were registered on different days by people who had driven along the road linking Iquique and Arica, through the Atacama Desert.

One witness, Hernan Cuevas, said: "A weird animal looking like a dinosaur with two legs and huge thighs crossed the road in front of my car."

A police spokesperson said: "It is not uncommon for people to see strange things near the desert.

"But it is the first time that so many people have come forward seeing the same things at the same time, so we are intrigued."

Does pure uncut coke have any disfiguring characteristics?

Or:
Has Michael Jackson been seeing any plastic surgeons in South America lately?

Yeah, I remember when I smoked my first joint too.

Are they saying all of these critters have stipes or are solid everywhere else?
