Burrunjor

The Burrunjor is a cryptid allegedly sighted on multiple occasions in the northern Australian Outback.

Description
Reports indicate that the Burrunjor is a bipedal reptile similar in appearance to a dinosaur of the Theropod type, measuring between twenty and twenty-five feet in length. Is is said to have a long tail, a small pair of clawed forelimbs, three-toed feet, and at least one account states that it is covered in feathers.

Accounts dating from at least the 1950’s state that a creature which left large, three-toed bipedal tracks was eating the livestock of local farmers. Another account from 1985 relates that a family travelling to the Roper River sighted a creature at least twenty feet long, with a thick coat of feathers.

What is interesting to note is that aboriginal tribesfolk have recorded the appearance of a large dinosaurid in cave paintings from many thousands of years ago. However, these may be depictions of the carnivorous Megalania which was thought to inhabit the Australian continent up until around 50,000 years ago.
