If the target is a Small or smaller creature, it is grappled (escape DC 16). Until the grapple ends, the quetzalcoatlus cannot bite another target. Swallow. The quetzalcoatlus makes a bite attack against a Small or smaller creature it is grappling. If the attack hits, the target takes the bite's damage, the target is swallowed, and the grapple ends. While swallowed, the target is blinded and restrained, it has total cover against attacks and other effects outside the quetzalcoatlus, and it takes 7 (3d4) acid damage at the start of each of the quetzalcoatlus's turns. A quetzalcoatlus can have only one creature swallowed at a time. If the quetzalcoatlus takes 8 damage or more on a single turn from the swallowed creature, the quetzalcoatlus must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate the creature, which falls prone in a space within 10 feet of the quetzalcoatlus. If the quetzalcoatlus dies, a swallowed creature is no longer restrained by it and can escape from the corpse by using 15 feet of movement, exiting prone.

A group of quetzalcoatlus stalking baby sauropods. Mark Witton and Darren Naish Source Quetzalcoatlus is a flying reptile, of close relation to pteranodon, that reaches wingspans of 36 feet and acts as terrestrial predators, preying upon small animals though they share pteranodon's opportunism. These giraffe-sized pterosaurs also possess a toothless beak that comes to a sharp point. Another feeding behavior they have is they will steal kills from smaller predators and scavenge off of dead creatures.
