I figure I just saw the pterodactyl a lot more often.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Pterodactyl first, Grey second was how I wound up thinking of it.
On the whole the pterodactyl was friendlier and less deadly. So your priority seems perfectly reasonable to me.

My unspoiled speculation is that in 1965, the 456 made contact and wanted human specimens. Britain gave them the orphans on the condition that they would not return.

well, nice to know that I was right. I had hoped that Jack wasn't so directly involved, though. Did you notice the three soldiers in the background. I'll bet that they were the three names.
lesson: government is sketchy.
