Preparing for Liftoff Early winged raptors reveal a key stage in the evolution of flight. How did early winged raptors get into trees with only two legs? We see in the young of living birds that even poorly developed wings can create enough thrust to let them run up a tree trunk. The prey-grabbing motion and flight features let them flutter-glide to the ground. 𝟐𝟎).

Gastornis is an extinct genus of large, flightless birds that lived during the mid-Paleocene to mid-Eocene epochs of the Paleogene period. Fossils have been found in Europe, Asia and North America, with the North American specimens formerly assigned to the genus Diatryma. Gastornis is known from a large amount of fossil remains, but the clearest picture of the bird comes from a few nearly complete specimens of the species Gastornis gigantea. These were generally very large birds, with huge beaks and massive skulls superficially similar to the carnivorous South American "terror birds" (phorusrhacids). The largest known species, Gastornis gigantea could reached about 2 m (6 ft 7 in) in maximum height, and up to 175 kg (386 lb) in mass. The skull of Gastornis gigantea was huge compared to the body and powerfully built. The beak was extremely tall and compressed (flattened from side to side). Unlike other species of Gastornis, Gastornis gigantea lacked characteristic grooves and pits on the underlying bone. The 'lip' of the beak was straight, without a raptorial hook as found in the predatory phorusrhacids. The nostrils were small and positioned close to the front of the eyes about midway up the skull. The vertebrae were short and massive, even in the neck. The neck was relatively short, consisting of at least 13 massive vertebrae. The torso was relatively short. The wings were vestigial, with the upper wing-bones small and highly reduced, similar in proportion to the wings of the cassowary. The reason for the extinction of Gastornis is currently unclear. Competition with mammals has often been cited as a possible factor, but Gastornis did occur in faunas dominated by mammals, and did co-exist with several megafaunal forms like pantodonts. Likewise, extreme climatic events like the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) appear to have had little impact. Nonetheless, the extended survival in Europe is thought to coincide with increased isolation of the landmass. 🎥 Video belongs to me: Planet Dinosaurs 𝐅𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐮𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐕𝐈𝐑𝐀𝐋 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐎𝐧 𝐈𝐆 #gastornis #gigantea #terrorbird #giantbird #dinosaurbird #dinosauriosdinosaursofinstagram #dinosaurios #jurassicpark #spinosaurus #jurassicworld #jurassicworlddominion #trex #dinoworld #predator #monster #seamonster #ancienthistory #mosasaurus #prehistoricanimals #animals #paleontology #velociraptor #tyrannosaurusrex #indominusrex #archaeology #mammal #fossil #prehistoricearth #planetdinosaurs #prehistoricplanet #paleoart #terrorbird #diatrymagigantea

Tiny arms, powerful hips, and long legs shift its weight back, and its long counterbalancing tail lets Poposaurus run fast and stand still on its back legs.
