Improving this article[edit]

I was kind of disappointed by this article's quality. It has only three points, none of them particularly strong. The first point seems to boil down to "a dinosaur can not be a live today because dinosaurs aren't alive today". The other two could be explained as a result of evolution. We should really be using better arguments than that. I'm going to do some research on this thing later and see what I can learn about it, and if there are any better ways to argue against it's existence.--ZeroIsLogic (talk) 22:54, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

Found a lot of information about it what it is described as, but not sure how to know how reliable a source is for the information I find on sightings, and expeditions. I also found an interesting piece of information on Wikipedia. "The BBC/Discovery Channel documentary Congo (2001) interviewed a number of tribe members who identified a photograph of a rhinoceros as being a Mokèlé-mbèmbé". I haven't found said episode however.--ZeroIsLogic (talk) 22:03, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

I recently did an update to try providing some more detailed info. This is a cryptid with a fairly long history and deserves more than a brief stub. --Chris4957 (talk) 19:27, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
