vast inland sea once covering much of outback QueenslandLooks like they have a litte oil production in that region, but perhaps they need to bring in more rigs. Sounds worth wildcatting to me.

Thank you! I get so tired of people constantly pushing all that metric gibberish.

I remember reading years ago about an Ostrich rancher in Australia losing almost his entire flock when they were stampeded by an ultra-light aircraft passing overhead and the ‘herd’ got entangled in wire border fencing with broken limbs and pretty much died of fright.
Genetic memories of a large winged predator?

Nice find. Was the skull that Mr. Richards (presumably Dr. Richards by now) is posing with... a reconstruction of what they thought it should have looked like based on the amount of material they actually found? From the schematic diagram there is a small section of a brownish stippled color depicted. The rest is in black and white. My guess is that brown stippled area is all they found. So lots of conjecture is at play, it would seem.
Interesting to say the least. Thunderbird, phoenix, puff the magic dragon, rocs ,may not be so fanciful after all.

Did you ever read “The Lost World” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle? Same author of the Sherlock Holmes series.
It has spawned many, many movies, since it publishing in 1912.
In it, the adventurers brought back a pterosaur to London!.................

Quetzalcoatlus supposedly had a 10+ meter wingspan and stood as tall as a giraffe on the ground, 10 feet high at the shoulder. I guess some people originally estimated it might have had a 15 meter wingspan, around 50 feet.

I’m thinking its natural prey would be to snatch smaller flyers out of the air.
