For years, people in Wisconsin were reporting sightings of Kangaroos and nobody believed them but it was finally documented. He also had reports of a missionary from last century who sighted a dinosaur in Africa.
He also reports the story that Europeans didn't believe the Africans who were reporting "hairy men" that lived in the jungle. Until they saw gorillas for themselves, they didn't believe they existed.

I read up some on the Wisconsin Kangaroos. Amazing stuff. So strange! The first recorded sighting of kangaroos in that area was 1899 (51 years after it became a state). People really did not believe it, but sightings continues ALL OVER the state for the next 90 plus years.
Then in the late 90s a farmer caught one! It now lives in the Madison Zoo and is named Roo.
In 2000 a man hit one with his pickup truck and it is also documented.
Very strange! It just goes to show that we do know all that we think we know!
