* In the Chilean puppet show ''Series/TreintaYUnMinutos'', one of the songs of the show is ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45tDcqsku5k Dinosaur Anacleto]]'', the only surviving dinosaur on the Earth that even became a showbiz personality. The song is in general a melancholic one, since the main theme of the song is how lonely Anacleto is because all his dinosaur friends are dead and he wants friends again.

* As mentioned in the film section, some cryptids around the world are thought to be living dinosaurs. The first one was probably the Loch Ness Monster. Africa has several, especially around the Congo region with the Mokèlé-mbèmbé (possibly a surviving sauropod) as the most famous one. There's also the Ropen (an alleged living pterodactyl) in Indonesia. Most modern cryptozoologists do not take these claims seriously and, although they do believe some of these animals could be undiscovered species, most of them do not think they are literally [non-avian] dinosaurs.

If anything, most of these cryptids began as legends of powerful, dangerous spirits in animal form (such as the kelpie in Nessie's case), but sightings of them in the late 19th/early 20th century combined with a surging interest in dinosaurs at the time (and colonialist beliefs about [[DarkestAfrica Africa as a "primeval" continent]] in the case of the Congo monsters) resulted in sensationalist newspapers publishing claims of living dinosaurs that were kept alive by wishful thinking and tourism money. Tellingly, many of these cryptids reflect antiquated understandings of dinosaurs and their brethren as monstrous, lumbering brutes living in stagnant swamps, rather than the present-day science of fluffy, intelligent, warm-blooded dinosaurs as diverse as the animals of today.

Some writers think having dinosaurs in a story is inherently cool, but in this case dinosaurs were not brought back with [[Literature/JurassicPark cloning technology]] nor [[WesternAnimation/WereBackADinosaursStory due to time travel]]. Dinosaurs just [[AlternateHistoryDinosaurSurvival survive the mass KT extinction]] up to modern (or even future) times.

* ''Film/{{Pterodactyl}}'': An earthquake inside a mountain near the Turkish–Armenian border shakes loose a clutch of pterosaur eggs that somehow survived perfectly intact and dormant for millions of years, causing them to hatch. At the end of the movie, once all the pterosaurs are dealt with, an actual dinosaur is also shown living inside the mountain.

* Creator/RayBradbury's short story ''Literature/TheFogHorn'', is about two lighthouse keepers marvelling at a giant aquatic dinosaur that survived extinction by hibernating in the ocean abyss, which visits the site once a year on the exact same night.

The story was loosely adapted into ''Film/TheBeastFromTwentyThousandFathoms''.
