Interesting Facts: Dragonflies are among the most ancient insects and were some of the first winged insects to evolve, about 300 million years ago. While modern dragonflies have wingspans of about two to five inches, fossil dragonflies have been found with wingspans of up to two feet! Dragonflies hunt other flying insects so have to be agile. They can move and rotate each of their four wings independently. They can fly backwards, up and down.
