This article needs some citations. For instance the quotation about the Kongamato encounter needs to be sourced. I found this in Everett H. Ortner, "Do "Extinct" Animals Still Survive?" ''Popular Science'' September 1959, p. 87. It's there word for word, complete with the narrative about shooting the bat first. Would someone knowledgeable about Sanderson please go through the article and identify sources for some of the information in this article?

Warning for hoax link
The probable hoax Atmospheric beast is linked up to this article, guising it as amoeba-like outer space animals. It's probable the entire sentence should be erased as a hoax intended to perpetuate Atmospheric beast. Said: Rursus ☻ 10:18, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- Google search on "Atmospheric beast" "Ivan T. Sanderson" gives 7 hits. 2 are Wikipedia, 1 is a copy of Wikipedia, 4 are not connecting Sanderson with Atmospheric Beast at all. The sentence about Atmospheric beast is a blatant hoax, I'm going to remove it aggressively, so that electrons fly around. Adding such sentences are not just hoax – in a biography, it's a case of slander! Said: Rursus ☻ 19:32, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, but the article Atmospheric beast itself is not a hoax. --Againme (talk) 20:25, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Name confusion
In the entry for Ivan T. Sanderson, in one place on the page his middle name is shown as 'Terence' and in another place as 'Terrance'. Which is correct? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.75.61.17 (talk) 00:23, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
