The Trouble with Pterosaurs: Discover How These Prehistoric Flyers Changed History Sep 29, 2025

Show notes

What’s the trouble with pterosaurs? In this episode of Wow in the World, Mindy and Guy Raz take flight into the prehistoric skies to explore the fascinating world of pterosaurs. These incredible creatures weren’t dinosaurs, but flying reptiles that soared above them, sparking curiosity for generations. The mystery of pterosaurs continues to inspire scientists and kids alike, making them one of the most talked-about prehistoric animals today.

After taking Reggie to the mall for a sleek new feather-cut, Guy and Mindy start to reminisce about other ancient creatures that also had feathers and those that didn’t! A trip to the movies reveals a heated debate amongst the paleontological community about whether or not the largest creature to ever take to the skies was a feathered friend or a bald bird!

Throughout the episode, discover how pterosaurs lived, hunted, and adapted, and why they weren’t actually dinosaurs at all. Their fossilized remains provide a window into ancient ecosystems, teaching us not only about pterosaurs but also about evolution, extinction, and survival.
