Pteranodon Above the Rocky Canyon
The prehistoric flying reptile crosses the upper part of the scene with its long wings spread wide. Below it, a river winds through a canyon bordered by rock formations and smaller stones. The broad view places the animal high over a rugged landscape and moving water.
Interesting Facts About Pteranodon in Flight
Pteranodon was a pterosaur, not a dinosaur, and its long wings were adapted for efficient gliding. Scientists think it could use rising air and coastal winds to remain aloft while searching for food. Its large head crest may have helped with display and could also have affected balance or airflow.
Possible Natural Colors of the Scene
