One that really sticks in my mind is a Far Side comic (Gary Larson) in which a parrot is sitting on a tree over a quicksand pit with two pith helmest floating on it, repeating the phrase "Let go Morty, you're pulling me in! Let go Morty, you're pulling me in!" :lol: Can't find it online though.

Wasn't there a Far Side cartoon about victims of the La Brea Carpets?

I definately remember the Far Side one with the parrot.
About the La Brea Tar Pit was it about a cave family someone saying something like "This is the last time we have a family reunion at the tar pits?" (words to that effect)
La Brea Carpets does sound familar.

I remember the La Brea Carpet, and also another one involving "arboreal quicksand" - quicksand that lurks in trees, ready to descend on its victims.

There is one on page 11 of The Far Side Gallery (No 1) showing a sign "Quicksand , be prepared" which has some hats on a flat surface and there is one on page 116 on the German version of "The Prehistory of The Far Side", the last catoon before Chapter 3, called Palaontologie, with a family in tar pits.

Hope that helps
