Regaliceratops
Regaliceratops was a horned dinosaur that lived about 68 million years ago in what is now Alberta, Canada. It had a huge, crown-shaped frill on its head and a big nose horn, but only tiny horns above its eyes. Its nickname was 'Hellboy' because the skull was so hard to dig out of the rock!12

Ebyewuunyisa
Regaliceratops had a big nose horn but very small horns above its eyes, which is the opposite of its close relative Triceratops.2
Its frill was shaped like a crown, with large bony bumps around the edge that looked like jewels.12
Scientists think Regaliceratops evolved its fancy frill and horns to show off to other dinosaurs, not just for fighting.2
The only known skull was found by a geologist named Peter Hews in 2005, sticking out of a cliff along the Oldman River.1
Regaliceratops lived in a warm, swampy environment with ferns, palms, and ginkgo trees.1
It was about 5 metres long and weighed as much as a small car, around 2 metric tons.1
