Kent Hovind and others claim

Response: 

1. The alleged dinosaur, Mokele-mbembe, is nothing more than a legend.  Some locals in the Congo will readily tell you that it is not a real beast, but is only in folklore.  Others do say it exists, but there is no hard evidence to support this claim

2. A living dinosaur would not be a problem for old earth creationists.  It would be termed a "living fossil" by young earth creationists, but such a claim would not help their cause.  To see why, read Living Fossils
