Bakonydraco was a flying reptile that lived in what is now Hungary. It had a long, toothless beak like a pair of tweezers for grabbing fish. With a wingspan as wide as a small car, it soared over rivers and lakes.1

Bakonydraco is known from a nearly complete lower jaw, which is one of the best preserved jaws of any azhdarchid pterosaur.1

Its neck was long and stiff, so it could not bend its head down easily. This may have helped it catch fish without slowing down.1

Bakonydraco lived alongside dinosaurs like theropods, ornithopods, and nodosaurids, as well as turtles, crocodilians, and birds.1

The name Bakonydraco means 'dragon of the Bakony Mountains', where its fossils were found in a bauxite mine.1

Scientists think Bakonydraco may have eaten fruits as well as fish, because its beak looks similar to that of the fruit-eating pterosaur Tapejara.1

Bakonydraco lived about 85 to 83 million years ago, during the Santonian stage of the Late Cretaceous.2

Anc discutà: Scientists are not sure whether Bakonydraco mainly ate fish or also ate fruits. Its beak suggests both were possible.1
