The Horned Face of the Cretaceous

Styracosaurus albertensis lived approximately 75 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous Period in what is now Alberta, Canada. The name means "spiked lizard," referring to the spectacular array of four to six long horns that projected from its neck frill. These impressive spikes, combined with a single nose horn up to 2 feet long, created one of the most dramatic defensive displays in the dinosaur world.

This herbivorous ceratopsian measured about 18 feet long and weighed around 3 tons. Despite its fearsome appearance, Styracosaurus was a peaceful plant-eater that used its parrot-like beak to crop vegetation and its batteries of teeth to grind tough plant material. The spectacular horns and frill likely served multiple purposes: defense against predators like Albertosaurus, display for attracting mates, and species recognition.
