Pterodactylus
These creatures have a wingspan of approximately 3 feet, and only weigh 5 pounds.
Pterodactyls are small flying reptiles with wingspans of around two to three feet, beaks filled with small sharp teeth, and feet tipped with sharp claws. They tend to lair along seaside cliffs, but some species have colonized jungles and forests. While not much of a threat themselves, they become dangerous in large numbers. Any disturbance of a nesting cliff, such as collecting eggs or simply trying to scale the cliff, can stir up dozens of these small reptiles in a shrieking cloud.
