Artwork of the pterosaur, Pteranodon sp
Pteranodon. Artwork of the flying reptile Pteranodon sp.. This genus dates from the Upper Cretaceous period (about 80 million years before present). With a wing-span of up to 9 metres, it is thought that Pteranodon was a superb flyer, although likely to glide most of the time, with an essentially coastal existence. The bony process at the back of the skull is thought to have been an aid to steering. Its diet probably consisted mainly of large flying insects caught on the wing, and small fish and cephalopods caught whilst soaring over the surface of the sea

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the majestic Pteranodon, a remarkable flying reptile that roamed the Earth during the Upper Cretaceous period. With its wingspan stretching up to an impressive 9 meters, this ancient creature was undoubtedly a master of the skies. Although it is believed that Pteranodon spent most of its time gliding effortlessly through the air, it likely had a coastal lifestyle. The intricately detailed illustration highlights the unique features of this pterosaur. One notable characteristic is the bony process at the back of its skull, which scientists speculate played a crucial role in steering during flight. This adaptation demonstrates how nature has equipped these creatures with extraordinary abilities for survival. Pteranodon's diet consisted primarily of large flying insects that it skillfully captured while soaring above and small fish and cephalopods snatched from the sea's surface. Its aerial hunting prowess would have been truly awe-inspiring to witness. This stunning piece of art not only captures the essence and beauty of this prehistoric marvel but also serves as a reminder of our planet's rich history and diverse inhabitants throughout time. As we explore fossils and delve into paleontological research, we gain valuable insights into Earth's past ecosystems, allowing us to better understand our own place within this ever-evolving world.
