Strange but true
Bat-Eating Giant Bat
Thought to be a modern pterosaur
If you have
seen something
flying at night, not
like a bird but too big
to be a bat, please contact
details
about your sighting.
By Jonathan David Whitcomb
"One of the flashes took off from a big tree overhanging the river and made a kind of flashing coma turn. Many flashes were parallel
to the river. . . . there were many
fish . . . Prime hunting grounds for fish-
eating birds. Only these things fish at night
with bioluminescence."

“This creature was huge . . . In the distance I perceived an object in the sky. At this point it was rather indistinct and wondering
what it might be I watched it as it approached. . . . Within a minute or so it had reached our position and was about 250 or 300 feet
above us . . . It did not appear to be covered with feathers but had a leathery texture. Soon after it passed us it flew over
a more brightly lit sports area which highlighted even more the leathery appearance also bringing more detail
to view. . . ."
"the idea that dinosaurs and pterosaurs became extinct many millions of years ago is not "science" but an
assumption. No evidence proves universal extinctions, but ample eyewitness evidence supports the concept that some supposedly "ancient"
creatures still live, including pterosaurs."

"Flying Foxes sleep hanging upside down during daylight hours, sometimes on branches crowded with dozens of [other
fruit bats] chattering at each other.
. . . In some areas of Northern Australia, fruit bats . . . [eat] tons of fruit from orchards."
But these bats are unlike the giant flying creatures that many report.
Almost all of the researchers who have studied these accounts for years believe that these creatures are live pterosaurs. Most of
the eyewitness accounts include a description of a long tail; some include a structure they have seen at the end of the tail: like
a Rhamphorhynchoid tail flange. Believe what you will, investigations continue.
These giant nocturnal flying creatures are sometimes observed where bats are common. See Chapter Seven of the book Live
