Schleich 15008 Pteranodon Dinosaur Figure The Pteranodon was one of the largest pterosaurs in the Cretaceous period. The striking bony crest on the rear of its head provided a counterweight to its long beak. It probably didn’t flap its wings very often, but instead took advantage of the wind to glide through the air – similar to an albatross. Dimensions 9.13 x 5.87 x 2.52 inch (W x D x H) Suggested age suitability 4 years and upwards.EU Warning: Not suitable for children under the age of 3 years due to small parts which could cause a choking hazard.
