A Civil War picture features something that resembles a dinosaur
In his recent Dinosaurs: The Final Day documentary, British broadcaster and naturalist David Attenborough showed evidence of the fact that the largest prehistoric reptiles have indeed been wiped off the face of the Earth due to a meteorite collision. The roughly 700 dinosaur species were killed in only a few hours.

For this reason, it’s strange that these soldiers were photographed posing beside an animal that strongly resembles a pterodactyl. The picture dates from the Civil War, which took place millions of years after dinosaurs ceased to exist. Maybe it was a strange bird species, but it doesn’t look like anything that’s been seen before.
