Bravoceratops was a big, plant-eating dinosaur with a huge frill on its head and a beak like a parrot. It lived in what is now Texas, USA, about 70 million years ago. This dinosaur is known from just one skull, but it helps scientists understand how horned dinosaurs changed over time.1

Its name comes from the Rio Bravo del Norte, the Mexican name for the Rio Grande river.1

3

The only known fossil of Bravoceratops was found in Big Bend National Park in Texas.1

4

Bravoceratops lived during the Maastrichtian age, about 70 million years ago, near the end of the dinosaur era.1

5

Some scientists think Bravoceratops might be the same as another dinosaur, but others say it is a valid genus with unique features.1
