Kosmoceratops richardsoni
About 76 million years old and discovered in the Kaiparowits Formation in Utah, this ceratopsian has one of the most ornate skulls of any known dinosaur. Studies of their bones show that they grew and matured quickly and they had a diet of woody plants. It is unknown exactly what function their unique head frill and horns had. It may have been sexual selection, social display, or defense. Utah is known for its vast diversity of ceratopsian species found in similar habitats, and coprolites show that this was made possible due to niche partitioning. Similar animals depending on slightly different resources so they do not overly compete with each other. A modern example of this phenomenon would be the wide array of ungulates, hooved mammals, thriving in Africa. This is the holotype specimen, currently housed behind the scenes at the Natural History Museum of Utah. Although I have focused on theropods for many years, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for ceratopsians! Fun fact about myself, Triceratops was my childhood favorite.
A pretty regular Heterodontosaurus tucki who became an unwitting vessel to contain an evil godlike entity, with its prisoners manipulating her fate to keep her alive and preventing the entity's release. Since I end up drawing a lot of dinosaurs furing Artfight, I made one myself. Second heterodontosaur character on Artfight, by the way, the first one having been added only last year.
