?When did Pteranodon live?

Pteranodon lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 88 to 80 million years ago.1

?Where did Pteranodon live?

Pteranodon lived in North America, especially over the Western Interior Seaway, a shallow sea that covered parts of what are now Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Alabama.1

?How many Pteranodon fossils have been found?

More than 1,200 specimens of Pteranodon have been found, making it the best-known pterosaur.1

?Was Pteranodon bigger than a plane?
