What Makes the Pterodactyl So Special?
The Pterodactyl was a type of pterosaur, which means "winged lizard." They weren't actually dinosaurs, but they lived alongside them! They had long, slender beaks and hollow bones, which made them lightweight and perfect for flying. Pterodactyls lived during the late Jurassic period, about 150 million years ago. They were relatively small compared to some other pterosaurs, with a wingspan of about 3-6 feet. They were carnivores, meaning they ate meat, likely catching fish and small animals.

Tips for Coloring Your Pterodactyl:
