You lot ready to stop obsessing on this. There's no reason why most of the massive dinosaurs, especially the quadrupeds would have any. Even the giant theropods aren't too likely to have them.
if you think about it all dinosaurs walked at 2 legs at one point, there was a proto sauropod. 4 legged came after i mean there is lizard hipped and bird hipped dinosaurs so i’m guessing ceratopsians are bird hipped
I can not imagine the feeling of intensity that combat between those two titans would have felt like. The earth would shake, and lesser animals would flee the area.
People be saying there are no evidence of trikea moving in groups when people have found over 50 triceratopa skulls alone in hella creek, and some of them had rex teeth embedded into their crests which healed over, indicating that trikes faced rexes and survived the encounter, more than likely rexes would hunt a random solitary trike in pairs or more, bit trikes may have had herds as well, and were far more numerous throughout america than any other dino, they were the more successful dino.
Well no shit they were more successful. Prey will always outnumber their predators by a high amount. If they didn’t, they would’ve gone extinct by their predators.
We can also kind of guess they had a temperament similar to hippos or rhinos, since we do know they often fought one another hard enough to tear holes in eachother's frills, and there is that one t-rex with a hole in the back of its femur which may well have been a triceratops chasing it down to fuck up its day
Thanks, that was pretty cool. The fact that these kinds of animals existed never ceases to blow my mind. I've read a few books on dinosaurs and triceratops usually don't get much spotlight.
@carleehooley6338 That's exactly what I do with my free time, and the mass extinctions, too. All of the time periods are so fascinating for their own reasons. Bacterial endosymbiosis and the first cells and tissues in the Proterozoic, all the diversity in the Cambrian, the massive arms races in the Devonian, the influence of elevated 02 in the Carboniferous, the great dying of the end Permian, all the dinosaurs in the Mesozoic! My favorite has to be the Cenozoic, especially the Miocene, through the Holocene because of certain lines of bipedal ape. :) Life on our planet has such an incredible story. I think the Cambrian had some of the most interesting creatures and body plans, though. Look at Halucigenia, or Anomalocaris, or Opabinia! Could you imagine if they were never wiped out and started their own giant branches in the tree of life that were still around today!? It's just too fascinating.
Cambrian lifeforms looked exactly like aliens. I mean, they were really bizarre creatures. For example, trilobites had incredible eyes, insane adaptations that made them almost immortal for such a long period of time. @@noeditbookreviews
My fave Dino. Theyre like a cross between a Rhino and a Brahma Bull. Imagine an elephant with 4 ft horns coming at you and the momentum to drive them thru whatever it hits. It brings to mind a speeding tractor trailer plowing thru a group of stationary cars. It doesnt matter how big and bad a Dino you are, a 4ft horn thru your guts is definitely a game changer, yet the Trikes were just Herbivores, minding their own business and grazing like a herd of Cows. The epitome of "walk softly but carry a big stick".😉👍
Yeah like ankylosaurus would be waiting to see that lol it would destroy t rex head with that bony tail when t rex tries to put its head forward to anky's head@@AbandonedAccount4
Everyone was misled to believe that T-Rex preyed upon Triceratops, when in fact, T-Rex had huge ole factory cavities denoting it to be a pure scavenger like a buzzard... 💥
If T rex was pure scaveger then why would it need the most powerful bite of any animal in history plus there have been several Triceratops bones found with T rex bite marks that actually healed over and also a duck bill dino was found with a large bite taken out of it's tail that healed over and again the tooth marks matched perfectly with T rex teeth and that means T rex went after and attacked big plant eaters while they were alive so it likely also would eat dead animals when available or go after live prey just like all preditory animals do.
What about Triceratops's tongue?? Seems to me, that it would have been very useful if was prehensile, like a giraffe's tongue, or even a cow's tongue. It would have helped to grab foliage and bring it into the mouth.
Fantastic details. But there's no need for repeating the "Late Cretaceous Ceratopsid" intro info to every single species. It's like Groundhog Day in Cretaceous Park.
You give your garden water...it grows, green and fast, that's why the deer come eat everything! Green stuff grows faster and higher by the water! Food,water, life giving
Triceratops was tough enough to often survive attacks by tyrannosaurids. Ankylosaurus was tough enough that most tyrannosaurids didn't dare to try for them.
Not true. Paleontology is basically forensics done on extinct creatures, with contributions from geologists, comparative anatomists, zoologists, physicists, DNA experts and other fields, pooling their knowledge. Not nerds who who make stuff up. That knowledge is added to every day interpreted a little differently by different experts-- same as forensics.

That lays a bit more responsibility on my shoulders. I already do my best to find reliable sources, more details and information. But I always fear doing something wrong, since my audience knows much about paleontology and I have to gather proper and true information.
Hippos likely evolved from a group of anthracotheres about 15 million years ago, the first whales evolved over 50 million years ago, and the ancestors of both these groups were terrestrial. These first whales, such as Pakicetus, were typical land animals.
Immortal here. The trike was able to run up to 90 miles per hour, could rotate it's head all the way around like an owl, and was sentient. It was aware of tool use and often bemoaned the fact that it did not have thumbs.
Whilst this was very interesting, the order in which the information was presented was, in my opinion, in an incorrect order. The discoveries of the fossils should have come first, then the morphology and then conjectures about their life styles.

triceratops is overated, it only had a frontal defense and its spinal ridge was actualy very vulnerable... especially to a crushing rex bite. anky could also have its skull crushed by a rex bite. both were definitely dangerous herbivores but did not pose much of a threat to a pack of rexes which was the most likely predation scenario.
@mexicandog5224 We actually have little evidence on the social structure on either dinosaur. We do have evidence of Interspecies confrontation & injuries between both animals against each other ( predator/prey predation and defense); & from their own kind ( T. rex bite marks on multiple other rex skulls; several Triceratops having gouges in their frills & skulls from the horns of another). T. rex social structure is still up for debate, it did have close & distant relatives that lived in possible family groups ( Teratophoneus, Albertosaurus, & Yutyrannus); but we don’t have evidence of T. rex did or not. As for Triceratops, well it’s actually the odd-man-out for Ceratopsians. We do have evidence of other Ceratopsians living in groups; some even being MASSIVE numbers ( Pachyrhinosaurus, Centrosaurus). Triceratops ; while being the most common Ceratopsian at its time & place, is actually not one of them. The fossils we find are either solitary or in relatively small groups. But still, trying to figure out the behavior; especially social behaviors; of any extinct animal can always be a struggle & debate for many.

No feathers. The frill is actually something that grows in after death. They didn't have it in life. Just a weird quirk of their biology.
