I went to a pterosaur exhibition. A lot of fossils and reconstructions were on display and I really impressed the diversity of the pterosaur(ex. body length, food, tail length and so on). The largest ones (Quetzalcoatlus) seemed to reache more than 10m when they spreaded their wings. The reconstruction was amazing and I could not imagine such big creatures flying!
Strange to say, though I do not like reptiles and amphibia very much, I am really interested in such ancient creatures.
A drastic environmental change on the earth by the meteorites colliction seems to be a major cause of the pterosaurs and dinosaures extinction.
I heard that the extinction was one of the five miserable extinctions of creatures on the earth. Does anyone know other 4 events?
Anyway, I really enjoied the trip to the age of the dinosaurs.
It was very happy time.
