Bird From Hell and Other Mega Fauna, Fourth Edition - Paperback

by Gerald McIsaac (Author)

Three teenagers stood in the schoolyard across from the village store as the sun faded. A loud whooshing filled the air before a massive creature flew past, its wingspan nearly 30 feet and tail as long as a boy's height. Later, another girl mistook the beast for something else and struck at it, only for it to release a toxic cloud of smoke before vanishing. Reports tell of cattle and horses killed by the same deadly gas. Authorities often ignore such cases, though evidence points to reptilian DNA. Other creatures are said to roam-lake monsters like Ogopogo and Nessie, nocturnal beings that graze by night, and giants known as Sasquatch, regarded with respect by First Nations. Accounts also describe surviving prehistoric animals, from plesiosaurs to woolly mammoths and dire wolves. The belief is clear: these creatures never left us, only adapted, waiting in the shadows.
