Prettige feite

Auroraceratops had a short, wide snout, unlike many other early horned dinosaurs that had long, narrow snouts.1

Its name honors Dawn Dodson, the wife of paleontologist Peter Dodson, as well as meaning 'dawn horned face'.1

Over 80 skeletons of Auroraceratops have been found, many curled up as if they died in burrows.1

This dinosaur had rough, bumpy areas on its skull and jaws that were probably covered in horny material (keratin) in life.1

Auroraceratops lived in a seasonally dry environment alongside other dinosaurs like the tyrannosauroid Xiongguanlong and the ornithomimosaur Beishanlong.1

It was about the size of a large dog, only 1.25 meters (4.1 feet) long and weighing about 15.5 kilograms (34 pounds).1

Ontdekking: Auroraceratops was named in 2005 by You Hailu and colleagues based on a nearly complete skull found in the Gongpoquan Basin of Gansu Province, China.1 3
Steeds omstrede: Scientists are not sure whether differences in skull shape among Auroraceratops specimens are due to individual variation, sexual differences, or how the fossils were preserved.1
