Pterosaurs

Quetzalcoatlus







Rhamphorhynchus




Pteranodon

 
Rhamphorhynchus was a small flying reptile. It belonged to a group called Rhamphorhyncoids. Rhamphorhyncoids had long tails. Rhamphorhynchus had a tail that looked like a kite. Next, Pteranodon. Amazingly, Pteranodon has no teeth. Pteranodon swallowed its fish whole. Pteranodon had a wing span of 23 feet long. Last picture, Quetzalcoatlus. It had  wing span of 39 feet long making it the biggest Pterosaur ever. It ate dinosaur carcasses.

  1. Great info, Dino Devan. Before you, the only flying dinosaur (though now I know it's not called a dinosaur) that I knew of was the Pterdactyl.
