Step into the fascinating world of Triceratops, the iconic genus of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaurs that roamed the Earth during the late Cretaceous period, approximately 68 million years ago. Triceratops, meaning “three-horned face,” captivates the imagination with its imposing presence and unique features.

The Triceratops possessed a formidable appearance, with a sharp, hard beak and an impressive array of teeth, sometimes reaching up to 800 in number. These teeth allowed them to expertly slice and crush various vegetation, adapting to a herbivorous diet. Despite their fearsome looks, Triceratops did not prey on other dinosaurs for meat. However, their robust build and three distinctive horns, featured on one of the largest heads of any land dinosaur ever discovered, would have provided effective defense against potential predators.
