Frequently asked
What were pterodactyls and how did they fly?
Pterodactyls were flying reptiles, not dinosaurs, that ruled ancient skies during the Mesozoic Era. They had hollow bones and bat-like wings made of skin stretched between their arm bones and body. Some species were as small as pigeons, while others had wingspans larger than small airplanes, making them incredible aerial predators.
When did pterodactyls live?
Pterodactyls lived during the Mesozoic Era, specifically from about 228 to 66 million years ago. They existed alongside dinosaurs but went extinct at the same time, likely due to the asteroid impact and environmental changes that killed most prehistoric life on Earth.
What did pterodactyls eat?
Most pterodactyls were carnivores that hunted fish, small reptiles, and insects. Many had long pointed beaks with sharp teeth perfectly designed for catching slippery prey. Some larger species may have been scavengers, feeding on dead animals they found while soaring over ancient oceans and coastlines.
