Quetzalcoatlus 1.14.11
Museum visitors provide a good idea of the scale of the Quetzalcoatlus in this shot.
Today we put together our new cast of a Quetzacoatlus - the Texas Pterosaur - perched, with wings folded. Even without the 36-foot wingspan spread, it's mighty impressive.
This Quetzalcoatlus northropi cast was assembled and measured to finalize the design of a Cretaceous vignette featuring three of the giant flying Texas reptiles that will be featured in our new paleontology hall in 2012!
The cast will be on display through Monday, Jan 17 - last chance to see this amazing creature before 2012!
