Archaeopteryx, along with the four-winged Microraptor, was the link between reptile and bird. Featuring the wings and feathers of a bird and bony tail and teeth of a dinosaur, this chicken-sized dinosaur was very much like the wyverns (two-legged dragons) of European lore.Before its discovery, Darwin had already concluded that birds and reptiles were linked in evolution. This was proof of it. It was related to dinonychus, a giant velociraptor-like creature.archaeopteryx is considered to be a link between the reptiles and birds of today.
