I have found several credible websites that have shown several different archeology digs in which they found clay dionsaur figurines and carving showing humans and dinosaurs interacting with dinosaurs. in every case they were of whole living dinosaures not just bones. in every case they were carbon dated around two thousand to ten thousand years ago. why hasn't this been in the news anyone with information on this contact me

okay then...thats all fine and dandy...but you know how the people are on this site... give us sum linkies and we can decide from there

well every time they go into the amazon they discover a new species, god knows what u could find in the interior of china, still lurkin about.

yea...

well it kinda makes sense, though actual dinosaurs would need some solid proof and probably would have hit the world news by now, as the man who discovered them would be world famous.

right, lets find the dinosaurs - so that we can build the next disney world and destroy south america too

i tell you, if we found prehistoric life that'd be the last of it - we'd find a way to kill it and destroy the sanctuary that kept it from extinction

run barnie run

please give us links to the site. i wouldn't be surprised if there are dinosaurs stil about, but if there are they will most likely be at the bottom of the ocean not in the rain forest

who knows what they'll find
like someone said they still find new species in the amazon
and i think they only explored less than 5% of the sea so its not that unbelievable

Here's a little something. It's old, but worth reading,

Dinosaurs in the lost world
In his 1912 novel The Lost World Sir Arthur Conan Doyle imagined the discovery, by a band of hardy English explorers, of a plateau on the Amazon basin where prehistoric monsters lived on millions of years past their time. Considering the enduring popularity of this romantic tale, which one biographer calls "perhaps his finest work in fiction," it is perhaps surprising that relatively few claims of relic dinosaurs in South America have been made in real life.

One such account was published in the January 11, 1911, issue of the New York Herald. Its author, a German named Franz Herrmann Schmidt, of whom little is known, claimed that one day in October 1907 he and a companion, Capt. Rudolph Pfleng, along with Indian guides, entered a valley composed of swamps and lakes in a remote region of the Peruvian interior. There they discovered some strange, huge tracks, indicating the presence of more than one unknown animal in the waters, and crushed trees and vegetation. They also noticed the "queer" absence of alligators, iguanas, and water snakes.

Despite the guides' visible fear the party camped in the valley that night. The next morning expedition members got back into their boat and resumed their search for the animals. Just before noon they found fresh tracks along the shore. Pfleng declared that he was going to follow them inland, however dangerous the quest. just then they heard the screams of a troop of monkeys which had been gathering berries from some trees nearby. According to Schmidt's account:
... [A] large dark something half hidden among the branches shot up among [the monkeys] and there was a great commotion.

One of the excited Indians began to paddle the boat away from the shore, and before we could stop him we were 100 feet from the waterline. Now we could see nothing and the Indians absolutely refused to put in again, while neither Pfleng nor myself [sic] cared to lay down our rifles to paddle. There was a great moving of plants and a sound like heavy slaps of a great paddle, mingled with the cries of some of the monkeys moving rapidly away from the lake.... For a full 10 minutes there was silence, then the green growth began to stir again, and coming back to the lake we beheld the frightful monster that I shall now describe.

The head appeared over bushes 10 feet tall. It was about the size of a beer keg and was shaped like that of a tapir, as if the snout was used for pulling things or taking hold of them. The eyes were small and dull and set in like those of an alligator. Despite the half dried mud we could see that the neck, which was very snakelike, only thicker in proportion, was rough knotted like an alligator's side rather than his back.

Evidently the animal saw nothing odd in us, if he noticed us, and advanced till he was no more than 150 feet away. We could see part of the body, which I should judge to have been eight or nine feet thick at the shoulders, if that word may be used, since there were no fore legs, only some great heavy clawed flippers. The surface was like that of the neck....

As far as I was concerned, I would have waited a little longer, but Pfleng threw up his rifle and let drive at the head. I am sure that he struck between the eyes and that the bullet must have struck something bony, horny or very tough, for it cut twigs from a tree higher up and further on after it glanced. I shot as Pfleng shot again and aimed for the base of the neck.

The dinosaur figurines were later discredited to have been made by locals seeking tourism. I assume that the carvings are the same. Many Christian websites, however, say that they are real, naturally to support fundamentalist views.

I have also read that too, but when they first discovered them there was not that many tourist around also there were a couple of thousand found. It was only after the fact that people were interested in them that the locals would of got in on the act.

i think it is the most ridiculous thing to say that dinosaurs were put on earth to test our faith. I mean come on that is a pitiful excuse to support the equally ridiculous idea of creationism

if there is any dinosaurs still alive then their hiding really deep in the jungle, also if they exist then maybe some tribes in the jungle are protecting them from being spotted by others? same things could be happening in the Congo and any other large jungle that apparently has dinosaurs still lurking about

I thought it was very interesting too, when I first read about it, but agree that they were forgeries, but put inside a real pre-coumbian indian site. Yes, bone and charcoal found with the figures could be dated, but not the clay figures themselves, which cannot be dated reliably on their own. From the very beginning, these were essentially being "bought", first by an individual collector, and later by tourists.

For more interesting than this is the fact that the Ketos "sea dragons" commonly depicted as a live animal in the classical world, looks quite a bit like a plesiosaur, with very reptilian features. No ancient person could possibly know they were reptiles from just finding few bones which strongly suggests their sculptures and drawings were inspired by real creatures.

Uh, yeah, I wouldn't trust a Christian website as your source. They have their own points they're trying to prove, and so the data isn't presented in an unbiased manner.

VERY TRUE!

There is a similar topic on this page :

peru

Now, that's worthy of study.

No, it would be like jurassic park and they would kill us.

Stories have come out of afc. about dinos for 100s of years. This is the frist time you yerd of it.

I don't know about South America, but an expedition is being launched to Africa to look for the Mokele mbembe. Would be cool if they did find it.

No the white man needs to leave the congo alone. The people there claim dino sightings all the time, and I don't want everything to be destroyed there.
