3

This pterosaur belonged to the same family as Quetzalcoatlus, one of the largest flying animals ever.1

4

Scientists once thought Azhdarcho skimmed the water for food like a modern skimmer bird, but newer studies suggest it walked on land and hunted like a stork.1

5

Most Azhdarcho fossils are just neck bones. The first one found was a single vertebra from the Kyzyl Kum desert.1

6

Azhdarcho lived about 92 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous Period.1
