That's wild, because despite how Hollywood portrays it, people and dinosaurs did not exist at the same time..

But apparently, Homo Sapiens' closest relative Homo Neanderthalensis was around when some nasty big predators still existed.

There is a lot of interesting related stuff at the Smithsonian Institute site:

Although where Sasquatch fits in the tree is still to be determined...

It's too bad they couldn't reconstruct the bird from its fossils. I'm curious about what it may have looked like.

It certainly is disturbing but, then again, I just read a story a few days ago of a poor woman who was eaten by a crocodile in Australia. I don't think I'll ever forget the image of that Indonesian woman who was found inside the belly of python. Monsters still exist today.
