Yeah, that's right. I'm posting pterosaurs on the commie instance. What are you going to do about it?
Anyway, giant pterosaurs are cool. They're also kind of terrifying. Nature is weird.

the larger the bird, the more dangerous. they are brutal.
if there were a chicken the size of a tractor trailer roaming the countryside, i would live underground and only emerge to forage if i had a grenade launcher or some shit.
Ironically, pterosaurs were not birds, and birds are actually theropods.
Actually pterosaurs are in no way related to birds. They were reptiles. Ironically the T. rex is more birdlike than this creature
i, a powerful mind, have transcended the dogmatic orthodoxy of linnaean taxa and the scientism of genetics.
that is a BIRD! his name is Squawky and he wants a sleeve of crackers the size of a school bus. bawk bawk bawk!
How "birdlike" something is does not necesarilly boil down to genetics, but rather if it has qualities in common with birds.
In this case it could be pretty reasonably argued that this big kitty is more "birdlike" than a T-rex, despite genetic makeup saying otherwise, since this big dork looks more like a bird than most depictions of T-rexes do.
