In Germany, scientists have found a new species of ancient flying reptile. It comes from a new scientific study of a flying reptile that lived about 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic period. The fossil was found in the ancient and fossil-rich rock layer in southern Germany. This area is already very famous for its prehistoric fossils, and this latest study is helping scientists learn more about how these flying reptiles changed with time. Pterosaurs were flying reptiles at a time when dinosaurs were walking on the Earth. By studying this fossil, researchers are getting to know more about different flying reptile species that lived during the same period. The discovery also shows that there is still plenty to learn about prehistoric life and the flying reptiles that once lived in different parts of the world.
