Pteranodon

Igama lithetha: “winged toothless”1

Yayitya: IintlanziIzirhubuluzi ezibhabhayoiCretaceous yamvaNgokwenene ayisiyo dayinaso

Pteranodon was a huge flying reptile that soared over an ancient sea. It had a big crest on its head and no teeth, but it caught fish with its long beak.1

Inyani emnandi: iipterosauri zazibhabha phezu kweedayinaso, kodwa zazingabazala bazo, hayi iidayinaso ngokwazo.

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Pteranodon was not a dinosaur, but a flying reptile called a pterosaur.1

Males had a huge, backward-pointing crest on their skull, while females had a smaller crest.1

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

Pteranodon flew over the Western Interior Seaway, a shallow sea that split North America in two.1

More than 1,100 specimens of Pteranodon have been found, making it one of the best-known pterosaurs.2

Its wings were made of skin stretched between a long fourth finger and its body.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Pteranodon — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Pteranodon esenokuba wayekhangeleka ngayo, wenziwe yikhompyutha ngokwento eyaziwa zizazinzulu. Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.

ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Pteranodon

?How big was Pteranodon?

Adult male Pteranodon had a wingspan of 5.6 to 7.6 metres (18 to 25 feet), while females averaged about 3.8 metres (12 feet). A large specimen of P. longiceps is estimated to have weighed about 50 kilograms (110 pounds).1

?Did Pteranodon have teeth?

No, Pteranodon had no teeth. Its name means 'wing without tooth' because its beak was toothless, similar to modern birds.1

?What did Pteranodon eat?

Pteranodon ate fish. Fossilized fish bones have been found in its stomach area, and a fish bolus was found between the jaws of one specimen.1

?Could Pteranodon fly?

Yes, Pteranodon was a flying reptile. Its wings were thin membranes of skin stretched from its arms to its ankles, supported by a very long fourth finger.1 4

?Why did Pteranodon have a crest?

The crest was probably used for display, especially in males, who had much larger crests than females. It may have helped them attract mates or recognize each other.1

?Is Pteranodon a dinosaur?

No, Pteranodon is not a dinosaur. It is a pterosaur, a flying reptile that lived at the same time as dinosaurs but belongs to a different group.1

?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?

No, Pteranodon was much smaller than a plane. Its wingspan was up to 7.6 metres (25 feet), which is about the length of a small car, not a plane.1

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Pteranodon is often called a dinosaur.

Inyaniso: Pteranodon was a pterosaur, a flying reptile that lived at the same time as dinosaurs but was not a dinosaur.1
