Kuhn Pterosaur of Cuba

Kuhn sketch of pterosaur

Eskin Kuhn had been on American military duty at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for about four months, in 1971, when he “witnessed the pterosaurs.” He reports, “It was a beautiful, clear Summer day . . . I was looking in the direction of the ocean when I saw an incredible sight . . . I saw 2 Pterosaurs…flying together at … perhaps 100 feet, very close in range . . . so that I had a perfectly clear view of them . . . the texture of the wings appeared to be very similar to that of bats . . . The Pterosaurs I saw . . . had a long tail trailing behind with a tuft of hair at the end . . . The head was disproportionately large, with a long crest at the back, long bill, long neck . . . I would estimate their wingspan to be roughly 10 feet . . . I recall that immediately afterward I could not positively discern the size of the creatures or the altitude of their flight, precisely because there was no known point of reference visible.”

  2. The “tuft of hair at the end” of the long tail may be related to the description of the end of the tail of the “pterodactyl” seen in Sudan, Africa, in 1988: http://www.livepterodactyl.com/blog/?p=29
