New Horned Dinosaur Species Unearthed In Utah
The two-ton plant-eater Machairoceratops cronusi had four horns and lived 77 million years ago.
A new species of horned dinosaur has been unearthed by scientists in southern Utah.
Remains of the animal, named Machairoceratops cronusi, suggest it was about 26 feet long, weighed two tons and ate plants. The first traces were found a decade ago in an area rich with the remains of centrosaurines — large-bodied, plant-eating dinosaurs that roamed North America and Asia 77 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.
