Click here for more Pachyrhinosaurus Pictures
Pachyrhinosaurus was a herbivore (plant-eater) that lived in western North America
during the late
Cretaceous period,
between about 72 and 68 million years ago. Its
fossils
have been found in
Alberta, Canada,
and in Alaska.
Pachyrhinosaurus was about 18 feet (5.5 meters) long, and weighed about
4 tons. Like other
Ceratopsian dinosaurs,
it had a massive head, a neck-frill, and spikes on its neck-frill. However, unlike some of its relatives
it did not have a horn on its snout, but instead had a massive flattened bony lump ("boss").
Scientists believe that it probably
used this boss in butting and shoving matches in a similar way to musk oxen do today.
