Pterosaurs and Birds in the Modern World

Nov. 29, 2021

Biologists generally believe that birds evolved from the theropod suborder dinosaurs, but in the age of dinosaurs, birds were not related to pterosaurs. The largest and heaviest pinniped weighed about 250 kg and was in the sky during the dinosaur era. The Absolute Ruler is also known as the largest flying animal on Earth. It towered like a giraffe and flew like a small plane. However, this giant of the sky became extinct 65 million years ago, and after that the sky belonged to birds.

Neither birds nor bats, pterosaurs are not reptiles; they are close relatives of dinosaurs that evolved on a separate branch of the reptile family tree. They were also the first animals, after insects, to evolve powered flight - not just jumping or gliding, but flapping their wings to generate lift and fly through the air. Let's start exploring the famous species my dinosaurs already possessed: 


Pterosauria(AD-584)



Feathered Serpentine

The pterodactyl pterosaur from the Late Cretaceous of North America is the largest known flying animal. It is a member of the Azhdarchidae, an advanced family of toothless pterosaurs with unusually long and rigid necks. It is one of the largest known species of pterosaur.


Long-headed Horned Pterosauria

This name was given to this creature by He Xinlu in 1983. the word Angustinaripterus is derived from the Latin word angustus. it is assumed that this creature would have received this name based on its appearance.

From the fossils of this creature, it was found to have a skull length of 165 mm. It was also found to have a narrow nostril and it would have had wings. 1981, the skull of a mandibular creature was discovered by a team of researchers from the Zigong Salt History Museum.


Diptera

A pterosaur-like pterosaur that lived during the Early Cretaceous in northwestern China and was first discovered in 1964 by Chinese scientist CC Young in the Junggar Basin of northwestern China. It had 10-foot-wide leathery wings, a curved chin and two crowns, one at the top of its head and a shorter one at the back of its skull.


Pterosaur

The name means "winged without teeth". It is one of the largest pterosaurs. It lived in packs on the ocean, searching for fish in its long, thin, pointed beak. Like most Cretaceous pterosaurs, Pterosaurus was a short-tailed, long-legged animal with a huge head.


The Largest bird

The largest bird in the world is the ostrich. Ostriches can reach a height of more than 3 meters, the height of an average house. Although ostriches cannot fly, they can run very fast, reaching 80 kilometers an hour, about the same speed as a car on a highway. The largest ostrich flocks include the Masai ostrich in Kenya and the South African ostrich in South Africa.


The smallest bird

Yes, it is a hummingbird. Hummingbirds, for the most part, live in North America, Central America and other regions. The average length of each hummingbird is only 7.6-8.9cm, which is equivalent to the length of an adult's finger, making it very small and delicate. It is worth mentioning that hummingbirds have an interesting way of attracting the opposite sex, which is to sing with their tails.
