Prehistoric ‘Runway’ Used by Flying Reptile

August 19, 2009

A prehistoric runway for flying pterosaurs has been discovered for the first time.

Scientists uncovered the first known landing tracks of one of these extinct flying reptiles at a site dubbed “Pterosaur Beach,” in the fine-grained limestone deposits of an ancient lagoon in southwestern France dating back some 140 million years ago to the Late Jurassic.

I told Mr. Pterodactyl he should have gone with the holographic cliff face.

At least they still think he’s extinct.
