A "bird" is a derogatory form for chick. It's usually used to indicate "bird-brained" behavior. It comes from chickenhead (or maybe even chicken, which is also an old ass gay term meant for a young, naive, possibly newly gay man) which is just a term used to mock the motions of giving head.

Anyways, bird is considered like a non-sexual variant of that word (and i've seen men get called birds on twitter too) just meant to denote someone so simply minded they have the intellect of your average passerine.

Calling someone a whole pterodactyl in this case is meant to note that Khloe is so birdlike and archaic in her presentation of shaming the woman, that it goes far beyond your average bird like behavior. She's like a super big bird that really stands out with the brazenness but also ineffectiveness of the tactic (possibly referring to the extinction of pterodactyls).

The insult is really effective because they're so many angles where it can fit, and because she didn't give an actual definition or reason of approximiation to that specific species, we just gotta speculate on why she's the a pterodactyl. In fact, given the kardashian influence in "influencer" culture, she might be calling her a proto-bird meaning all other birds are gonna follow in her example
