This is the fossilized skull of a panoplosaurus, an armoured herbivore.
Here we have a leptoceratops, an archaic cousin of the horned dinosaurs that lived at the same time as the others.
Hello, beastie.
Fossilized skin impressions, droppings, and footprints tell paleontologists a lot.
Styracosaurus was one of the horned dinosaurs.
In the background casing is an example of anchiceratops.
Below is a holotype- the first example discovered of a species. Chasmosaurus irvinensis is yet another of the family of horned dinosaurs.
Triceratops is one of those dinosaurs whose name is the earliest learned by children.














I remember Triceratops.
