Artwork of the flying reptile Quetzalcoatlus sp
Quetzalcoatlus. Artwork of a flying Quetzalcoatlus (Quetzalcoatlus sp.), a type of Pterosaur. This was the largest living thing ever to fly, with a wingspan of over 15 metres in some individuals. Quetzalcoatlus lived towards the end of the dinosaurs reign on Earth, up until around 65 million years ago. Opinion is divided on their behaviour, with some palaeontologists seeing them as soaring vulture- like feeders, and others as wading stork-like animals. They are generally considered to be warm- blooded, and some genera had a furry coat for insulation

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the majestic Quetzalcoatlus, a flying reptile that once ruled the prehistoric skies. With its impressive wingspan stretching over 15 meters, this magnificent creature holds the title for being the largest living thing to ever take flight. Existing towards the end of the dinosaurs' reign on Earth, around 65 million years ago, Quetzalcoatlus remains an enigma in terms of behavior. Paleontologists have debated whether these incredible beings were soaring vulture-like feeders or wading stork-like animals. Regardless of their feeding habits, it is widely accepted that they possessed warm-blooded characteristics and some even sported a furry coat for insulation against harsh climates. The intricate details captured in this artwork bring to life the awe-inspiring nature of Quetzalcoatlus. Its graceful flight through ancient skies evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about our planet's distant past. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how diverse and extraordinary life on Earth has been throughout history. Science Photo Library presents us with more than just an image; it offers a glimpse into a world long gone but forever imprinted within fossils and scientific research. This artwork serves as a testament to both artistic creativity and scientific exploration, inviting us to appreciate not only the beauty found in nature but also humanity's tireless efforts to understand it better.
