Edward IV of England 
 | issue = Elizabeth of YorkMary of YorkCecily of YorkEdward VRichard of Shrewsbury, Duke of YorkAnne of York, Countess of SurreyCatherine of YorkBridget of York
Edward IV of England 
 By the time Edward was eighteen, he and his brother Edmund, Earl of Rutland, who was seventeen, were old enough to take part in the fighting, and Edward turned out to be a very good soldier.
Edward IV of England 
 He was helped by Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick, a clever nobleman who fought for the Duke of York.
Edward IV of England 
 The Earl of Warwick did not know about their romance, and he wanted King Edward to marry a foreign princess in order to make an alliance with another country, which would have made his position stronger.
Edward IV of England 
 Elizabeth and Edward got married secretly in about 1464, and they had ten children in the nineteen years of their marriage.
Edward IV of England 
 He grew even more angry as time went on, because Elizabeth's family became powerful and the king no longer respected Warwick as he had done in the beginning.
Edward IV of England 
 In 1459 he rebelled against the king, with help from another of Edward's younger brothers, George, Duke of Clarence; George was married to the Earl of Warwick's elder daughter, Isabel.
Edward IV of England 
 The rebels went to France and made an alliance with Queen Margaret, who was the wife of King Henry VI.
Edward IV of England 
 The Earl of Warwick managed to defeat King Edward in battle in 1471, and freed King Henry VI from prison.
Edward IV of England 
 Henry was now king again, and Edward had to escape to Burgundy, while his wife and children went into hiding.
Edward IV of England 
 The Duke of Burgundy was married to Edward's sister Margaret, so he was willing to help raise more troops.
Edward IV of England 
 While Edward was away in Burgundy, his wife Elizabeth had given birth to a son, Edward, who was given the title of Prince of Wales.
Edward IV of England 
 George, who had once rebelled against him, was now loyal, and the youngest brother, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, had always been loyal.
Edward IV of England 
 George and Richard also quarrelled with each other, and in the end King Edward had to put George in prison, where he died.
Edward IV of England 
 Edward's brother, Richard, thought that it would not be a good idea for a boy to be king, and he took the throne himself.
Edward IV of England 
 He was seen as a strong and popular king, he was also tall at 6"4 (194cm) which was very tall for a man in the 15th century, his height as a tall monarch was passed only by Peter I of Russia who was 6"8 (203cm)
Pterosaur 
 Many pterosaurs were fairly small, but in the Upper Cretaceous some grew larger than any other flying animals.
Pterosaur 
 The first fossils occur in the Upper Triassic, and the group continues until the K/T extinction event at the end of the Cretaceous (220 to 65.5 million years ago).
Pterosaur 
 Their wings were made from a flap of skin between their bodies and a big fourth finger (sometimes called the "wing finger").
Pterosaur 
 The earlier Rhamphorhynchoids (e.g. Rhamphorhynchus) had long tails and toothed jaws; The pterodactyloids (e.g. Pterodactylus) had short tails, and many had beaks with no teeth.
Pterosaur 
 The first pterosaur fossil was discovered in the Late Jurassic Solnhofen limestone in Germany in 1784.
Pterosaur 
 Since the first pterosaur fossil was found, twenty-nine species of pterosaurs have been found in those deposits alone.
Pterosaur 
 A famous early UK find was an example of Dimorphodon by Mary Anning, in 1828 at Lyme Regis, Dorset, England.
Pterosaur 
 Their bodies were covered with fine hairs, so they were able to regulate their temperature (they were warm-blooded).
Pterosaur 
 When we first see them in the fossil record they have split into three families, so biologists know their early evolution is not yet revealed.p240, 246 These three families are represented by the three genera Rhamphorhynchus, Dimorphodon and Eudimorphodon.
Pterosaur 
 This shows that their flight was extremely stable, which means it kept on course, rather than darted about.
Pterosaur 
 To dart about quickly requires special advanced brains and reflexes, which later birds and pterosaurs had, but early ones did not.
Pterosaur 
 The analogy in planes would be fighter planes, which need such fast reactions that the details are worked out by computer, with the pilot indicating where to go.
Pterosaur 
 This again has a parallel with birds; Archaeopteryx and many Cretaceous birds have teeth; modern birds do not.
Pterosaur 
 The disadvantage of teeth is that they are quite heavy; when the animal can do without them, they will gradually get selected out.
Pterosaur 
 For a long time it was thought that the group died out at the end of the Jurassic, which was a minor extinction event.
Pterosaur 
 Even near the end of the Jurassic, Rhamphorhynchus was the most common pterosaur found at the famous Archaeopteryx site at Solnhofen in Bavaria, Germany, and now it is known that the group survived until the Lower Cretaceous. "
Pterosaur 
 Until recently, it was thought that rhamphorhynchoids died out at the end of the Jurassic, but new finds in the Jehol sequence of northeast China [show] that in this part of the world they survived until at least the middle of the Lower Cretaceous".
Pterosaur 
 They were short-tailed pterosaurs, suggesting that they had more sophisticated control of their flight, which no doubt gave them some advantages.
Pterosaur 
 2–300 specimens of 17 different species of pterosaur has been found at Solnhofen from eight different genera.p263 They include the earliest examples of Pterodactylus, and Germanodactylus, a genus which is also found in England and China.
Pterosaur 
 Ctenochasma, also from Solnhofen, had a comb of 260 thin teeth showing it to be a filter-feeder that may have waded or swam in the water.
Pterosaur 
 Gradually, larger versions evolved, and by the Upper Cretaceous most pterosaurs had huge wing-spans and clearly covered huge distances soaring on upcurrents in a warm environment.
Pterosaur 
 Pteranodon, with a wing-span of over 20 feet (7m), and Quetzalcoatlus, with a wingspan of 40 feet (12m) are famous examples.
Pterosaur 
 The many dozens of partial skeletons of Pteranodon were found in areas where, in the Cretaceous of North America, there was a gigantic inland sea, the Western Interior Seaway.
Pterosaur 
 We do know that the land in the Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous was in part forested with Araucarian conifers like cypresses, and with yews.
Pterosaur 
 Since birds were already common in the Lower Cretaceous, they would have competed vigorously with the smaller pterodactyloids.
Pterosaur 
 That may explain the extinction of the smaller pterosaur species, though the lack of fossils from the forested areas makes it difficult to judge.
Pterosaur 
 The huge Upper Cretaceous types pterosaurs clearly lived a different life-style from the smaller species, and one which was not yet accessible to birds.
Pterosaur 
 As the climate changed in the Upper Cretaceous, becoming colder and more seasonal, the number of pterosaurs became fewer.
Pterosaur 
 Recent publications have shown that more pterosaurs survived to the end-Cretaceous event than was previously thought.
Pterosaur 
 Like most of the larger species on Earth, the huge pterosaurs did not survive the K/T extinction event.
Pterosaur 
 So ended the competition between the two types of flying reptile through the long 79 million years of the Cretaceous period.p346
Pterosaur 
 There are many adaptations of the head and jaws of pterosaurs, so it is quite certain that different forms used different feeding methods, as birds do.
Pterosaur 
 Overall, most fossils have been found in marine strata, which suggests that they could fly well over water, and that fish were on the menu for many species.
Pterosaur 
 The jaws of fish-eaters was long and often held forward-pointing teeth, good for catching fish (see Anhanguera).
Pterosaur 
 Fossils show that one pterosaur, the Pterodaustro found in Argentina, had comb-like strainers in its mouth.
Pterosaur 
 The pterosaur probably ate by filling its lower jaw with water and pushing the water out of its mouth through the strainers.
Pterosaur 
 The strainers could catch any plankton or other small creatures that were in the water, and when the water was gone, the animal could eat what was left.
Pterosaur 
 Other species had long, compressed lower jaws, which suggest they were skimmers at the top of the water.
Pterosaur 
 Flying insects were abundant in the Mesozoic, and many pterosaur species give clear signs that this was their food.
Pterosaur 
 For a long time people thought pterosaurs could only glide and soar, and were not strong enough to flap their wings.
Pterosaur 
 English palaeontologists showed that pterosaurs could fly, and Tilly Edinger showed that by the end of the Jurassic, pterosaur brains were more like that of modern birds than of Archaeopteryx.
Pterosaur 
 Recent work has used working model to simulate their flight.p218 The wing membrane was about 1mm thick, with a tough skin and had long fibres reinforcing it.
Pterosaur 
 This can be clearly seen in some of the fossils.p332 The structure helped the wings survive the stresses of flight.
Pterosaur 
 It is most likely that they walked on four legs while on the ground, as fossil tracks have been found showing they used both their legs and hands to support them.p210–222
Pterosaur 
 They were extremely light (even more than bird's wings – some were almost as thin as a piece of paper), and some were almost hollow.
Pterosaur 
 Tiny holes in the bones are evidence of air sacs which extended into the vertebrae and limb bones, as it does with birds.
Pterosaur 
 With these special bones, even the largest of pterosaurs, Quetzalcoatlus, probably weighed less than 200 pounds.
Pterosaur 
 There is evidence that some species, such as Pteranodon, had sexual dimorphism (sexes looked different).
Pterosaur 
 Evidence of tooth wear in Eudimorphodon suggests the young were insectivorous, while the adults ate fish.p343 Development took place rapidly in these warm-blooded reptiles, and much of their life-style parallels that of birds.
Pterosaur 
 The high energy-level needed for flight explains why both reptilian forms (pterosaurs and birds) developed similar metabolism.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 Quetzalcoatlus had an unusually long neck, and when it stood on the ground it was as tall as a giraffe.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 Since the bone looked hollow, like the bone of a bird, he thought it was part of a flying creature – and he was right.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 This would have been astonishing, because in the whole fossil record there is no flightless pterosaur.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 One idea is that it ate fish, by flying with its jaw in the water, and snapping up fish when it hit them.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 Of these proposed lifestyles, in-flight piscivory [fish-eating] appears to have gained the most acceptance, with skim-feeding being a frequently suggested foraging method.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 The other theory is that it fed on land, partly as a carrion feeder, like vultures and buzzards, and foraged for small animals.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 This view is gaining ground, because the jaw does not show the adaptations for skimming found in modern birds who catch fish this way.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 In flight, it was certainly a soarer, flying on up-currents of air in a warm environment, and its remains come from a site which was far inland in the Cretaceous.
Quetzalcoatlus 
 Quetzalcoatlus was shown in the movie When Dinosaurs Roamed America eating a dead Triceratops carcass.
