Pentaceratops
Click here for more Pentaceratops Pictures
Pentaceratops was a herbivore (plant-eater) that lived in North America
during the late
Cretaceous period,
between about 75 and 73 million years ago.
Pentaceratops was about 27 feet (8 meters) long,
and weighed up to 5.5 tons.
Although somewhat smaller in over all size as compared to its better-known relative
Triceratops,
Pentaceratops had a larger neck frill, and as a result has the largest known
skull of any land vertebrate.
The first
fossils of
Pentaceratops were found by C. H. Sternberg in
New Mexico.
The animal was named by
Henry Fairfield Osborn in 1923
- its name means "five horned face" - this refers to the three large horns
on its face together with the two spikes by its eyes (one under each eye).
