3. Brontosaurs
Wait, what??? The brontosaurs actually never existed? Apparently, it’s just a result of an error, some fossils were mismatched because of a battle or argument between two paleontologists.
The two wanted to name as many dinosaurs as they could, and they were in so much competition that they even destroyed fossil sites. One of them found the skeleton of a long-necked dinosaur but couldn’t find its head, so instead, he picked a different skull and matched it to its body.
4. Chupacabras
In the ’90s many strange animal attacks occurred in Latin America and people started to believe in a monster called Chupacabra (translated as ”goat sucker”). When investigators tried to get to the bottom of it, they learned that most of the sightings and the description of the creature was influenced by the movie ”Species“.
Like all of the previously mentioned animals, this is just a myth.
