New Pterosaur Missing Link Found in Triassic Brazil | Venetoraptor

Evolution can be difficult to piece out when the fossil record is as broken as it is. However, sometimes it coughs up some great material that provides extremely important information to help fill in the gaps in knowledge. One of the continuously decreasing shadows of mystery in evolution, is the transitional stages that led to the pterosaurs and the dinosaurs. One brand new piece has been described from the reddish rock layers of Triassic Brazil and it promises to shed new light on the origins of archosaurian flight. __________________________________________________________________ Art in Thumbnail belongs to - Johnny Mingau __________________________________________________________________ ✅Tyler Addison ✅   / tyleraddison17   ✅Adam Midzuk ✅   / kuzim_za   __________________________________________________________________ ✅ PATREON ✅   / edgescience   ✅ STICKERS & SHIRTS ✅ https://www.redbubble.com/people/Pain... ✅Facebook: facebook.com/ExpeditionDG/ ✅Twitter: twitter.com/EDGEinthewild ✅Instagram: @edgeonthetrail ✅ MUSIC ✅ “The Most Extreme Theme” - PastEonsProductions “Iron City” - State Azure “Pan Flute World Music” - Edgar Muenala “Stegosaurus Valley” - Dinosaur Music “Remember Panama” “Saudade” “Rio Samba” - Liborio Conti “Brazilian Jazz” “The Most Extreme CGI Theme” - Diario’s Music __________________________________________________________________ If I've used something on my video that you don't want me to use, PLEASE EMAIL ME first before flagging a video, I'm very reasonable and will take the video down to replace whatever image or video belongs to you.
