ABOUT

Largest of the flying reptiles, Pteranodons normally hunt large fish. They fly over shallow seas, dive into the water, and come up with a beak full of flapping fish. However, some species adapted to life in unusual conditions such as mountains towering over large jungles or open grasslands. These populations hunt small game. Some Pteranodons grow to be truly large, with wingspans of 20 feet or more. Such specimens are capable of snatching up prey as large as a halfling and carrying it away to tear it apart with its sharp-toothed beak.
