The Ropen - A Living Dinosaur? Ropen Network

Program Playtimes

In November of 1989, deep within the remote jungles of Papua New Guinea, Harriet Sconce experienced something that defies explanation... A massive winged creature... silent... prehistoric... and unlike anything known to exist today. In Part 2 of this Case Files investigation, we examine Harriet’s eyewitness testimony of what many believe to be the Ropen—a creature described by some as a living pterosaur... or even a living dinosaur. Joined once again by Brian Price—Navajo, former Navy SEAL, wind talker, and Hollywood producer—we explore the deeper connections between ancient legends and modern encounters, including the mysterious Thunderbird traditions. Is this simply folklore... or evidence of something that has survived, hidden from the modern world? Papua New Guinea has long been referred to as “The Lost World”— Papua New Guinea has long been referred to as “The Lost World”—a place where undiscovered species and living relics may still exist. So the question remains... Did Harriet Sconce witness a living dinosaur? “Join us –and perhaps you too, will believe” -JG
