Another Pterosaur in South Carolina

Another eyewitness has come forward, with a report of a huge pterosaur seen flying over a sports field in Clinton, South Carolina. Others saw the creature flying high in the sky that day; I hope other eyewitnesses will come forward.

I saw a pterosaur in Clinton, SC when I was 15 or 16 while at a soccer camp at Presbyterian College in 1994 or 1995. . . . It was huge, as big as a plane . . . It was the last day of camp . . . I happened to be on the side lines resting when I saw a huge pterodactyl-looking creature, flying very high in the sky. The strangest thing . . . how slow the wings were flapping and how high it was flying. Several parents who were watching the scrimmages and some of the other players on the sidelines saw the creature too.

Years later in college, I was having some beers with some friends and somehow one of them ended up blurting out that he saw a pterodactyl. I told him I had seen one too and as it turns out, he was at the same soccer camp in Clinton, SC when he saw it. Over time I had started doubting myself because, or course, no one I ever told believed me. Now I had someone else to back up my story. Seeing Susan Wooten’s story on your website further reinforces my belief in what I saw.

  1. There was another sighting of pterodactyls in SC on the highway. If there are parts of South Carolina undiscovered, shouldn’t someone try to find out. Although they are spotted, I have heard of none there that are hostile. They don’t seem to be eating any of us. There are no reports of it, that have been heard. If there are reports of it, wouldn’t more people know about the flying creatures? Wouldn’t there be warnings of them in schools and such? If such sightings of these creatures are true, then there must be places in SC that have not been discovered, or these creatures can fly long distances in a short time. If they are in SC, where are they?

    I believe there are pterodactyls still around today. I’ve heard about them in New Guinea, but are they in the US? Are none of us safe anywhere?

  2. Attacks on humans are rare in North America or rarely reported. The creatures are not necessarily rare, although at least most of them seem to be nocturnal and scattered across many states of the U.S.

    I recently finished the second edition of my nonfiction book “Live Pterosaurs in America.” Eyewitnesses keep reporting new sightings to me, so I continue to write books about those encounters.

    Are any of us safe at night? Well, not in the usual sense, for crossing the street in the dark can be risky sometimes. But we are in much greater danger, as pedestrians, from automobiles than from flying creatures, regardless of the time of day and what state we live in.
