Triceratops, a herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period around 68 million years ago, weighed between 5 and 9 metric tons. This large, quadrupedal dinosaur featured a notably large skull with a short, bony frill extending from the back, topped with three distinct horns: two large ones above the eyes and a smaller nasal horn on the snout. Its frill was edged with numerous small spikes. Triceratops coexisted with apex predators like Tyrannosaurus Rex, likely facing predation from them.
