What they discovered were the remains of a flying monster that would have stood 18 feet high on the ground and had a wingspan that rivaled the length of the two largest pterosaurs currently known: Quetzalcoatlus, found in Texas in the 1970s, and Hatzegopteryx, found in Romania in the 1990s.
The Mongolian pterosaur has not been declared a new species yet, because of its incomplete remains.

Fortunately for us humans, who would have made for a delightful midday snack, this pterosaur is dead. Long dead. Seventy million years dead.
DAMN!
Imagine the steaks we could make outta that.

I would challenge it to a modern eating contest. Meal is free if you can eat Hillary and Moochelle. It would be sure to barf on the first one.
