I read on The Land Before Time wikia that Petrie's dad and Pterano make an appearance. There's a picture, if you scroll down to the gallery, with two Pterosaurs that someone seems to think are Pterano and Petrie's dad - yet on Petrie's wikia page, it states that his father is never seen, even in the original movie.
Even so, I'm curious to find out. What episode do these two flyers appear in? Below the image, it says something about a "Hidden Canyon," but I don't recall ever hearing about this place. XP
Can anyone tell me?

There was an episode that revolved around the Hidden Canyon, which is a place that had a special fruit growing that repelled sharpteeth. I believe it was called The Hidden Canyon.

As for the supposed cameo, I have my doubts that it's Pterano and Petrie's dad. I think they're just a couple of other pteranodons. It's common for LBT to use similiar designs for characters of the same species. Look at Littlefoot and Ali, or Petrie and his siblings. Ali looks similar to a Littlefoot recolor (at least in LBT 4), and Petrie's siblings look like recolors of him. Then there's Ducky and her sisters, and they also look like recolors of her.

So just because that pteranodon looks like Pterano doesn't mean that it's actually him.

Yeah, I didn't think so - it didn't make sense that they would have brief cameos in the episode when they (or at least Pterano) were such prominent characters. Speaking of which, I'm gonna go see if I can find that episode. X)
