Triceratops is a fascinating herbivorous dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period, living around 68 million years ago and weighing between 5 to 9 metric tons. Known for its impressive size and distinctive features, it had three striking horns and a protective bone frill at the back of its large skull. The two prominent horns above its eyes stood out, with a smaller nasal horn on its snout, all complemented by small spikes along the frill’s edge. This powerful creature once shared its environment with Tyrannosaurus Rex, likely facing it as regular prey. Owning a fossil like this connects you to a remarkable chapter of Earth's history.
