Description
This Pterosaur tooth is about 1.25 inches long. It comes from the Kem Kem fossil beds, near Taouz, Morocco . The fossil is from the Cretaceous Period and is about 100 million years old. Pterosaurs were flying reptiles and not dinosaurs.
The first pterosaurs in the fossil record were from the Late Triassic Period. They ruled the skies until the end of the Cretaceous Period when a mass extinction wiped them out along with the dinosaurs and thousands of other species. Pterosaurs were the first vertabrates to achieve powered flight.
