an Archaeopteryx fossil
The Archaeopteryx is a prehistoric animal from the Late Jurassic. It is the link between reptiles and birds.
The first Archaeopteryx was found in 1860 near Solnhofen in Bavaria, Germany. Today nine skeletons and one feather of Archaeopteryx have been found.
The Archaopteryx looks like a bird with feathers, but it had a mouth with teeth, claws at the hands and an long tail like dinosaurs or reptiles. Today we know some dinosaurs that looked like birds and even some that had feathers.
