Greetings from the primitive highlands of Papua New Guinea. Cannibalism is definitely no longer practiced here, sorry to say, probably not since the 70s. You are right about the various "dinosaur" sightings, but please be a little more careful with your ethnographies.

Fwiw I read a few articles of PNG cannibalism postdating the 1970s, so while uncommon it's not unheard of.

Just a bit of dramatic flourish, I meant no offense.
