10-Foot Tall Carniverous Flying Dinosaur "Like a Giant Stork" - Nizar Ibrahim

When paleontologists dig for ancient dinosaur fossils, they aren't disappointed if they trip over a much-less-ancient, but still very old human fossil. Such was the case when National Geographic Emerging Explorer Nizar Ibrahim found "Halloween Man," in a 5,000 year old Saharan burial site. Ibrahim has also discovered a new species of Pterosaur, which was a 10-foot tall flying reptile with an 18-foot wingspan that lived 100-million years ago. Ibrahim is careful to explain that, despite him finding the human skeleton while looking for dinosaurs, they did not live at the same time.
