Pterodactylus
Quetzalcoatlus northropi,Pterosauria,Pterodactylus antiquus
Features:The wingspan can reach 10-12 meters, and the body is huge, which can fly in the air. This huge wingspan allows pterodactyls to glide for a long time and maneuver quickly in the air. Their wings are made of a membrane of skin, also called a flying membrane, which is supported by the arm bones, the large and long fourth finger (wing finger) and the wing bones. The pointed design at the front end is very beneficial for gliding. In addition, the structure of the pterodactyl's sternum and shoulder joints is conducive to the attachment of muscles, providing the power support needed for flight. These features enable pterodactyls to fly slowly like warships, or fly flexibly like seagulls, or even as agile as birds. The physiological structure of pterodactyls is also adapted to the needs of flight. Their bones are hollow and light, which helps to reduce weight, while also having enough strength to support flight. This bone structure not only reduces the weight of pterodactyls, but also fac
