All Flyers Are Birds: The "Ropen" episode repeatedly refers to pterosaurs as birds or dinosaurs. Barring the fact that there's really no difference between birds and dinosaurs, pterosaurs were not birds, nor dinosaurs.

Artistic License – Paleontology: Say it with me... pterodactyls ARE NOT DINOSAURS! They're also NOT BIRDS! And if hunting what you believe to be an iguanodon, a dead chicken is pretty much the very last thing you should use to bait it. Despite Josh acknowledging the fact that they have fossils to base their digital recreation off of, the show's interpretation of the Moa depicts it as a savage predator with colorful feathers and razor-sharp teeth. Yes. Razor-sharp teeth on an herbivorous bird. The show does this with every avian creature, actually.

The Alleged Car: A Running Gag on the show is that every car they get is a rough collection of spare parts held together by little more than hope. In Indonesia, the car caught on fire. With variants: the alleged plane, the alleged helicopter, the alleged tank... See Running Gag, above.
