Unescoceratops
Unescoceratops was a small, plant-eating dinosaur that lived about 75 million years ago in what is now Canada. It had a parrot-like beak and a short frill on its head, but no big horns like its famous cousin Triceratops. This dinosaur was named after a UNESCO World Heritage Site where its fossil was found.12
