In October 2014, during JC Johnson's appearance on 'Coast to Coast AM,' a caller described a 'mini T-Rex' encounter in west Texas. I have been reporting on the small dinosaur-like cryptid sightings in south Texas over the past few years (links attached):
Dan in Bakersfield in California called in to tell of something strange he observed as a child.
“I want to tell you about something that happened to me when I was about 13 or 14. I was living in Midland, Texas at the time and we would ride our motorcycles in the desert outside of town and we encountered, I don't know how to describe it... You guys were talking about a mini T-Rex? Is it from West, Texas? (speaking to host Dave Schrader and guest JC Johnson) Because we saw... I remember seeing this thing and it was probably about two feet high. It stood up on its back legs. It didn't have, like, fingers or like you'd normally see a T-Rex in the movies with three or four fingers. It only had one claw. And now I remember, we were running our motorcycles around and scared it off, I guess. It was greenish-yellow, I think, in color and never really thought about it. I just assumed it was some weird, you know, lizard but I remember... It was about 2 or 2 and a half, maybe 2 or 2 and a half feet high when it stood up. When it stood up, it had this egg shaped dome... The only thing I can say is that it did look like a T-Rex. It had an egg shaped face or head. (caller talks about an old Art Bell show where a caller described an encounter with T-Rex) There was four of us. We were about 13 or 14 years old at the time. We saw, it was crawling along on all fours and as we rode up on it, it reared back and it had these little tiny arms. It looked like a little T-Rex. So I honestly thought, I missed it or it was standing or I didn't see it right until years later when I heard that call on Art's show. It was angry. It wasn't happy that me and my friends were riding our dirt-bikes in that area.”
