These rather interesting archosaurs are actually flightless pterosaurs, having been adapted to a wholly marine lifestyle for tens of millions of years. They prefer warmer near shore waters, and swim by beating their wings much like a penguin. In order to avoid predation, they often spend their idle time basking on land, they are ovoviparous but prefer to give birth on land also.
