Was thinking back to HTTYD and how Toothless's flight was affected when he lost his tail fin(amazing smeer frame by the way)
Would sth similar happen to non pterodactyloid pterosaurs if their tail structres where damaged?They must have had some use other than display and signals

Paleo Fact!

Hatzegopteryx (Hațeg Wing) is an azhdarchid from Late Cretaceous Romania! At a height of around 18 feet tall and a wingspan of 33 to 39 feet long, making it one of the largest known pterosaurs and far larger than most fauna of Hateg Island- (1/2)

"Pterosaurs flying among/perched on tree branches" is one of my favourite recurring themes in Natalia's work. These compositions are so dynamic and pretty to look at. 😭 https://t.co/e0exktBZW3

No new art, so enjoy bits from the "humans and pterosaurs" series

Wrapping up talk - join the pterosaur panel to learn about publishing on fossils (which should be useful even for the small number of people NOT into pterosaurs)

Behold, my own version of the terrible tug of war pterosaurs. Both of em were a blast to do, and I even added some fun facts.

Fun fact Latharia is full of what we would think of prehistoric animals so the people of its large oasis cities send messages with Rhamphorhynchid pterosaurs the size of owls. They're called Heralds and have the same patterns/colourations as urban pigeons!

are chondrichthyes, some are plesiosaurs and some are pterosaurs. Sharpteeth are the major background force in the Land Before Time that drive both the plot and the setting: a major aspect of any location in the series is whether there’s a possibility of running into sharpteeth

I don't have much to share this holiday, but I have these random things. Do they qualify?

Name: Hatzegopteryx
Diet: Carnivore
Temperament: !!!!!

Of all pterosaurs,none are quite as feared as the Azhdarchids.. they are feared not only for how odd they look from other pterosaurs but also because they’re for a lack of better words “Storks from the underworld”.

Nyctosaurus is a genus of pterodactyloid pterosaurs that lived during the Late Cretaceous in North America. It is famous for its ridiculously weird crest. This is the approximate size of an adult Nyctosaurus

All about reptiles, how about a giant Triassic preying mantis? Aptly named, wait for it🥁Gigatitan🥁. With 40 cm wingspan it could go toe-to-toe with pterosaurs of the time (Also described by Sharov and stored in Moscow)

Much as I enjoyed season 2, it definitely could've used more paleofauna. It would've been awesome seeing vikings riding mastodons or Babylonian warriors on hadrosaurs.

At least we got some good looking pterosaurs and an Arsinotherium in the first couple episodes. Also Red❤️.
