Triceratops, a remarkable herbivorous dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period around 68 million years ago, weighed between 5 and 9 metric tons. This impressive quadruped is known for its distinctive three horns—a pair of large ones above the eyes and a smaller horn on its snout—along with a striking bony frill framing the back of its skull. The frill’s edge is adorned with numerous small spikes, adding to its powerful appearance. As a key species of its time, Triceratops faced formidable predators like Tyrannosaurus Rex, making fossils like this a rare and fascinating glimpse into prehistoric life.
