Dimorphodon Running Across the Grass
The prehistoric flying reptile is moving along the ground among dense tufts of grass. One wing is lifted, revealing its broad membrane, while the tail extends behind the body. Its large eye and visible teeth draw attention to the head as it runs forward.
Moving on Land as Well as in the Air
Dimorphodon was a pterosaur, not a dinosaur, and its limbs were adapted for both flight and movement on the ground. Pterosaur trackways from related animals show that many members of the group walked using all four limbs. Dimorphodon's name refers to the two distinct types of teeth in its jaws.
