Ancient 'Dragon' Beast Flew Right Out of 'Avatar'

Ancient 'Dragon' Beast Flew Right Out of 'Avatar': "A sprawling ancient flying reptile looked so much like a dragon that could have flown alongside the aerial predators called "ikran" in the film "Avatar" that its discoverers named the newfound beast after these mountain banshees.



The pterosaur, now called Ikrandraco avatar ("draco" means "dragon" in Latin), may have stored food in a throat pouch like a pelican does, the researchers said."
