Quetzalcoatlus Standing Among Plants
The pterosaur rests on the ground with its elongated neck held upright and its head lifted. Both wings spread away from the body, and simple clumps of vegetation grow around its feet.
Moving on Land
Quetzalcoatlus belonged to a group of giant pterosaurs that were surprisingly capable walkers. Fossil anatomy indicates that it moved on all four limbs when grounded, using its folded wings as strong front legs, and it may have searched open terrain for small animals and other food.
