They're hunting, but there's no need to worry, they don't mean us any harm. Compies eat mostly lizards, insects and small mammals.

*a herd of large dinosaurs stops to drink at the river* Iguanodon, the second dino to be officially named, way back in 1825 by English geologist and palaeontologist, Gideon Mantell. The name comes from its teeth which are similar to those of modern iguanas. In February 1878, the remains of an entire herd were discovered in a coal mine in Belgium. These specimens allowed for the correct placement of the thumb spike, which was originally thought to be a nose horn.

I like these too. They don't look like they are ready to attack.

*looks up at the sound of loud screeching* Train your eyes on the skies, everybody, we've got a pair of Pteranodons above us! Check out the size of those wings!

Should we try to find something to hide under?

Seems like they're just passing through, but I suggest you get a good look, coz you'll never see a modern bird this size. Adult males have wingspans of nearly 6.5 metres and very large, well-developed head crests. Adult females, on the other hand, aren't as big, with wingspans of between three and four metres and the head crest is small and triangular.

Can't miss them flying over. But I'll keep my Pith Helmet on. No bird poop on this head.

Pteranodons are reptiles.

Pteranodons are reptiles. They may be reptiles but if they are in the sky they could still poop on you.

True. Perhaps it might be a good idea to carry an umbrella. *continues leading the tour group downriver* Look there, everybody! Pannoniasaurus is the first-known freshwater Mosasaur. Keep in mind, these aren't dinosaurs, but rather aquatic reptiles. Mosasaurs come in a variety of sizes and the majority of them are found in open oceans and inland seaways. As far as I'm aware, Pannoniasaurus is the only species that lives in freshwater, though it's possible there may be others.
