Monkeydactyl Gets a Thumbs Up

A new pterosaur was discovered, that had opposable thumbs. It flew among the trees, and used its handy thumbs to help it climb. Researchers named it Kunpengopterus antipollicatus, but you can just call it Monkeydactyl. The small reptile lived during the Jurassic period, over 145,000,000 years ago, and is the only known pterosaur with thumbs.
