But other pterosaur-bearing rocks, like those of Solnhofen, preserve both young juveniles AND adults. We can't, therefore, entirely rule out parental care in sp. like Rhamphorhynchus or Pterodactylus. Maybe they did look after their young. Maybe they didn't.

This is an area where we need more data. Some pterosaurs - like Pteranodon, below - are essentially only known from adult specimens: we have one juvenile among thousands of adults. So they _may_ not have been looking after their offspring.

My name is Echo Ptero! Model is in the works but I am ready to mingle! I like music, games and making art. I hope to make some friends.

they are SO surreal and unsettling to look at
