Was This Fantastic New Death Dragon The Largest Thing To Fly? – Thanatosdrakon

Pterosaurs were the masters of the skies for the entirety of the Mesozoic era. The Pterosaurs were only joined by the birds near the end of that enormous chunk of time, therefore the flying reptiles beat the birds by a good 50 to 100 million years. Once considered clumsy leathery winged lizard dragons, they are now thought to have been some of the most well adapted flyers to ever live with many different groups adapting to catch fish, snag dinosaurs, comb the beaches, pilfer the swamps, scrape the great north, and scour the deserts worldwide. Though plenty of lineages produced truly enormous examples that rivaled and surpassed all modern birds, the largest lineage of the pterosaurs was the Azhdarchids.
