Flight: The Ultimate Pronunciation Escape Plan
Ever tried pronouncing "Quetzalcoatlus" at a dinner party? Yeah, this massive pterosaur evolved flight just to escape awkward introductions. Imagine being the paleontologist who discovered it: "I found a magnificent flying reptile with a 40-foot wingspan!" Colleague: "What will you name it?" "Something absolutely no one can pronounce without a linguistics degree." The irony is that despite being one of the largest flying creatures in Earth's history, poor Quetzalcoatlus is doomed to be forever called "that big pterodactyl thing" by museum visitors. Evolution's greatest achievement: flight. Quetzalcoatlus' greatest achievement: making substitute teachers sweat during dinosaur units.
