Supposedly, a mokele mbembe was killed in Africa a few decades ago.

Here's the website dedicated to mokele mbembe
Mokele mbembe is described by African Pygmies as what is essentially a living dinosaur. I remember seeing a segment on it during a TLC crptozoology show. A few anthropologists showed the tribesmen pictures of various animals, both living, extinct, and ficitonal. Some of the men talked quitely during the showing of most pictures, but when a drawing of a brontosaurus was shown, they all started shouting "mokele mbembe" in excited, nervous voices.
I'm not sure what they have seen, but if anything were to survive long past the accepted evolutionary period during which it is thought to have existed, the jungles of central Africa are a good candidate for a location.

Are there pictures of this dead "dinosaur".
I maybe wrong but I always believed part of evolution theory was that an animal evolved out of need to acclimate itself to the changes in the environment. Therefore if the environment doesn't change, the species would not have to. An example is the Great White Shark that has been pretty much the same since the beginning.
So if the forests of Africa and the Amazon or the Asian Himalayas have not changed, the animals would then not have to evolve to acclimate to a new change.
It is therefore possible, that there are Dinos out there because they haven't had to and mankind has not been that deep into the woods. But with exploration and now satelites that can see almost anything, anywhere, we will be able to see what these deep woods and high mountains hide that man was before unable to travel to.
