Coahuilaceratops had horns that were about 0.91 to 1.22 meters (3 to 4 feet) long, as big as those of Triceratops.1

Its name means 'horned face from Coahuila', after the Mexican state where it was found.1

It lived during the early Maastrichtian age, about 71.5 to 70.5 million years ago.1 3

Coahuilaceratops is the first dinosaur described from the Cerro Huerta Formation in Mexico.1 3

Its fossils were discovered in 2001 by Claudio de Leon near Porvenir de Jalpa, Coahuila.1

Scientists think Coahuilaceratops may be an early relative of Triceratops.3
