WV Living Dinosaurs
Posted by: Loren Coleman on September 28th, 2009
The recent final “Thunderbird” photo taken at that WalMart.
Here’s the “Thunderbird” original again:
Some living dinosaurs have four wheels, believe it or not.
There’s a site full of photos of folks called “People of Walmart.” Of course, like so many things on the Internet, they are making fun of certain individuals, in this case those who shop or, at least, park their cars at Walmart. Now, I don’t much agree with that, but it happens.
The “People of Walmart,” thankfully, seem to have missed our recent CEO’s report on the WalMart “lamppost-as-thunderbird” discussion. Nevertheless, I did notice the following image from that site worthy of sharing here. This dinosaur-covered van was photographed in a West Virginia WalMart. What the owner of this moving art gallery probably doesn’t realize is that the dino collectibles glued to his vehicle may be worth more than the value of the van.
Meanwhile, back in Maine….

About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
I thought a posting on “WV Living Dinosaurs” would surely include reference to our most famous living dinosaur, Sen. Robert Byrd.
The “People of WalMart” site is somewhat in bad taste, in my opinion. One can’t always go to WalMart in a suit and tie and Gucci loafers. (Sarcasm). 🙂
I like the van, though. Yep, someone needs to have a talk with the guy. Nice post.
I was just happy to see my favorite dino situated there up on top of the van…and in more than one spot…Godzilla. King of the monsters! and dinos…
