Uncovered pterosaur eggs reveal new information on the extinct species

Eggs from the pterosaur are very rare, and this discovery is even more exciting because sixteen of the three-dimensional eggs contained embryotic materials from the species.

First, to explain the concept of three-dimensional eggs: These are fossilized eggs that have not been completely flattened by years and years of crushing from newer sediments. This is due to cracks in the eggs, which allowed them to be filled with sandstone over time.

The presence of embryotic material has allowed scientists to be able to study the species more in-depth.
