Cute little guy with stars in his eyes!

Styracosaurus (or “spiked lizard”) was a member of the ceretopsian family of dinosaurs. Though somewhat smaller than it’s much more famous relative Triceratops, it made up for it’s lack of size in the number of horns it had covering it’s face with one long central horn jutting from it’s nose and at least 4 or more long frill spines protruding from the crest on the back of it’s skull. The spines most likely had a variety of purposes, from defense, to attracting a mate, to species recognition. Styracosaurus was a hervivore and lived during the Late Cretaceous period, roughly 75.5 to 75 million years ago, in what would eventually become North America ranging from Alberta, Canada to what would eventually be Montana in the United States.

Psittacosaurus was an early Ceratopsian, a member of the same group as Triceratops, and Styracosaurus. While they lacked the crests of their larger relatives they possessed tall skulls and powerful beaks, Ptittacosaurus (meaning “parrot lizard”) gets it’s name from it’s parrot-like beak structure. Fossils also have been found with preserved bristle-like filaments on the fail section, most likely used for display. Though it was small, only about 6.5 feet in length and weighing in at around 44 pounds, we know a lot about them. Psittacosaurus has the largest number of described species at around 9 or 10, many of those species possess specialized beak structures that possibly aided them in different ecological niches.

Here's a cute baby Triceratops!

In a time before chickens, HoliDinos have to decorate their own eggs. Or, at least, get some help to do so. (We’re ignoring the anachronism of the bunny costume. :p)

Triceratops

Nasutoceratops was a ceratopsian dinosaur from the Cretaceous period. It was a large herbivore with rounded horns above its eyes. This design features a cute version of the Nasutoceratops!

This is a digital illustration of an agujaceratops in a forest with red flowers! This cool dinosaur species is a cousin of the triceratops that lived in the cretaceous era. This is a great present for paleontology students or kids who love dinosaurs!

For the Triceratops, "Ceratopsian" is the fancy word for "horned face".

Protoceratops Retro Dinosaur Design! If you are an adult or a kid, these retro looking designs are the coolest dinosaurs of any era! Boys and girls of any age will LOVE THEM! With and without border/background designs available! Rawr!

Styracosaurus is a plant-eating dinosaur from the late cretaceous period. It is best known for the giant frill on its head and the two-foot horn on it's snout. A great design for dinosaur fans!

Triceratops + Trans flag = TRANSeratops prideosaur! Cute LGBTQIA+ design perfect as a gift for people who loves dinosaurs. Design fitting for Pride Month (June) and Dinosaur Day (June 1).

What??? It's TRUE. ;)

In 1922, Roy Chapman Andrews led an expedition to explore the inner reaches of the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. The expedition was taken on behalf of the American Museum of Natural History in the hopes of finding fossil evidence of the early origins of humans, while no early human remains were found on the trip they did find numerous new species of extinct mammals and many new species of dinosaur. Included in these specimens was a small relative of Triceratops (the famous horned dinosaur discovered in North America in 1887), it was only about the size of a small sheep, measuring around 5.9 feet in length and was only an estimated 182 pounds in weight.

Triceratops literally means 'three-horned face'
