Remote New Zealand Volcano Sees Dinosaur Alert?

Posted by simoniker on Monday May 24, 2004 @10:20AM from the dino-crush dept.

Thanks to BoingBoing for pointing to a ChannelNewsAsia story discussing a 'dinosaur' sighting in webcam pictures of a remote New Zealand volcano. The latest live webcam picture shows the offending creature, with Geonet spokesperson John Callan saying: "Some wag has glued a [toy] pink dinosaur in front of our digital camera", even though "...most people do not go ashore on the uninhabited, rumbling" White Island, east of Auckland, where the webcam is located. Apparently, the dinosaur will stay for now, since authorities "are not planning on removing it, counting on the sulphur and high acid environment to deal to the creature."

Well you can't prove what i am saying is false because it is posible and you have nothing to back up what you are saying in any way.
