Quetzalcoatlus

Quetzalcoatlus are the largest flying members of the pterosaur family and are often mistaken for dragons due to their immense size and 40-foot wingspans.
Quetzalcoatlus are carnivorous, feeding on a variety of reptiles, mammals, large fish, amphibians, and other invertebrates. They are not inherently aggressive creatures and are happy to scavenge for food, but when presented with live prey they readily attack almost any creature smaller than themselves.

Pterosaur

Source Bestiary pg. 272
Pterosaurs are primitive flying creatures. While many are smaller than a human, the two presented below are quite a bit larger. Each of these creatures could pose a serious threat to a person.

These flying reptiles can be found in a wide selection of regions, but they tend to soar above warm or temperate climates.

Although not true dinosaurs, pterosaurs are often found in the same regions as dinosaurs and other megafauna, wheeling in the skies above and adding to the general primeval ambiance of these lost worlds.
