Fatgs divertents

1

Lokiceratops was named after the Norse god Loki because its horns look like the curved blades Loki used.1

2

It lived alongside at least three other horned dinosaurs in the same area, which is very rare.1

3

Lokiceratops belonged to a group called centrosaurines, which had big nose horns and smaller brow horns.4

4

Its fossils were found in rocks that were once a coastal plain along an ancient sea.1

5

The full name Lokiceratops rangiformis means 'Loki's horned face that looks like a reindeer' because of its antler-like horns.1

Las dumondas las pli frequentas davart Lokiceratops

?How big was Lokiceratops?

It was about 6.7 metres (22 feet) long and weighed around 5 tonnes (11,000 pounds). That makes it one of the largest known centrosaurine horned dinosaurs.3

?Did Lokiceratops have a nose horn?

No, unlike its closest relatives, Lokiceratops appears to have lacked a nose horn. Instead, it had two huge, blade-like horns on its frill.3

?What did Lokiceratops eat?

Lokiceratops was a plant-eater. It lived alongside other horned dinosaurs that had very similar jaws and teeth, so they probably ate similar plants.3

?Where was Lokiceratops found?

Its fossils were discovered in the badlands of northern Montana, near the Canadian border, in rocks that were once a coastal plain beside an ancient sea.3

?When did Lokiceratops live?

Lokiceratops lived about 78 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous Period.3

?Is Lokiceratops a dinosaur?

Yes, Lokiceratops is a dinosaur. It is a type of horned dinosaur called a ceratopsian, closely related to Triceratops.3

Chatschader da mitus

Scientists are still debating why so many horned dinosaurs lived in the same small area at the same time.1
