Safari Ltd Wild Safari Tapejara Toy Plastic Brown
Like all pterosaurs,Tapejarahad long pointed wings made of skin that was supported by a single, incredibly long finger along the leading (front) edge. In its structure, the wing ofTapejarais much more like that of a modern bat then a bird, whose wings are made mostly of feathers. Despite these similarities, pterosaurs are not closely related to either bats or birds. Although some pterosaurs are the size of small airplanes,Tapejarais quite small, no bigger than a goose. The most striking feature ofTapejarais the huge crest on its skull. It is believed that the crest may have helped steer it during flight, like the rudder of an airplane. It could also have been used to catch the attention of otherTapejara, much the as a rooster uses the brightly colored comb on its head to impress hens during courtship.
