While a good chunk of this planet has been tamed by humanity, there are still portions of this planet which are still wild and unexplored. Such is the case of the jungles of Indonesia, an area inhabited by sparse tribes and if sightings are to be believed a host of creatures who should have gone extinct millions of years ago. These dense and dangerous areas have only been explored by only a few from the West and some of them have come back with extraordinary tales of finding mysterious and prehistoric beasts in this lost world.
In 2014 the account of a fisherman on the Indonesian island of Nusakambangan gained a attention from cryptozoological researchers the world over. He claimed to be out with
Deep in Africa the sauropod-esque cryptid Mokele-Mbembe is well known to cryptozoologists and researchers, but it would seem Inonesia's neighbor in Papua New Guinea have a similar animal in the Kaiamunu. Spending most of it's time in the waters, those who have seen this creature have described it as being 65 feet with a long neck and massive tail.

Scientists have written this off as simply a misidentification of flying foxes, the problem with this is that the people of this region

One would be safe in speculating that these sparsely populated wildernesses which have been unchanged for centuries would provide the perfect breeding ground for populations of prehistoric animals to survive when they should have been wiped out. Though as more people have ventured into the area they have come back with claims of creatures which are not to be believed. Perhaps it is only a matter of time before the dinosaurs of Indonesia are found and it would be a discovery which could change the way we view evolution and the history of our world.
