Gen-X dino nerd here. Biologist by education and career, never grown out of it. This is still *my* all-time favorite non-avian dino. I had a stuffed one when I was 6 years old. I have great memories of the Smithsonian when I young with dioramas of plodding, swamp-dwelling beasts, and had big glossy books with dinosaurs as we understood them in the 80's. HOWEVER, we should all celebrate the renaissance of new finds, cladistics, biogeochemical information that gives us insights into color, proteins, stable isotope geochem giving us trophic info, feathers, quills, and "dinofuzz", etc. Paleontologists around the world (S. America, China, Africa, Europe) are now making amazing contributions. We are truly in a 2nd dinosaur golden age unlike anything since the infamous "Bone Wars" between EDC & OCM. These animals were (and to me still are) incredible...and that's not even getting to all the incredible lineages (e.g. Rauisuchians, crazy marine archosauromorphs, Mosasaurs, Gorgonopsids, the early-Triassic-conquering Lystrosaurus, the Cenozoic dinosaur-echoes of Sebecids, Terror birds, etc.)... and all that's just the Tetrapoda... Ahem....sorry. Geeking out :) Definitely recommend Clint's Reptiles and other channels for great content for the deep-diving dino nerds out there. Thanks for this vid!
What’s interesting is that in the documentary dinosaurs decoded and bizarre dinosaurs, Jack Horner said that triceratops and other ceratopsian horns are fragile, but re-search confirm that triceratops was a fighter after all thanks to the specimen, big John, and there’s a specimen like you said that it had scars in the frill
Jack Horner says that kind of stuff about everything. He's a contrarian. Tiny dinosaurs like small raptors are apex predators, T. rex is a scavenger, and Triceratops- a huge, muscular, horned dinosaur that lives with the largest predatory theropod ever discovered (although again, Horner thinks it's a scavenger...) can't use its horns to fight. He isn't a serious paleontologist. He's a hack
Yes, they would've acted like modern animals do so we can assume that herbivores occasionally had conflict with other species of herbivores. And a lot of conflict with their own species in the case of ceratopsians.
My friend has a question what is triceratops personality and character like if we don’t know what do you think it what will triceratops personality and character be like I always think it has a honey badger and aurochs like personality and am I right.

A documentary length effort by my good friend about one of my favorite dinosaurs of all? Oh this was wondeful
Got THE seal of approval WOOO
Those skulls at MOR are GIGANTIC. From here on it’s “Angry Crab on four legs!”
Thank you for making such an in-depth Paleo Log!
This is a fantastic video! I learned so much about the ceratopsians. Definite subscribe. Plus, I love your screen name.
Are we sure that the "Bone Wars" weren't about who could grow the most unique facial hair? 😀
best dinosaur.
cannot change my mind.
Based opinion spotted
Roaming the earth in the past, haunting the imagination in the present, screaming outside my window at four in the morning.
Find yourself a friend who is as loyal to you as the tyrannosauridae to the ceratopsia.
Great video! 👍
Thanks!
The best dino defender
Besides large sauropods.
Im not a dino student but my first dino fossil was convollosaurus.
That's the weirdest Mammoth I have ever seen.
Great video! Keep em coming
Where did you find that picture on the 17:14 mark?
Thank you
nice
Did Herbivore Dinosaurs fight eachother like we see Elephant s vs Rhinoceros vs Hippopotamus
Yeuppers!
Yes, they would've acted like modern animals do so we can assume that herbivores occasionally had conflict with other species of herbivores. And a lot of conflict with their own species in the case of ceratopsians.
For some weird reason, I thought Triceratops kind of had hooves
Which is fair, alot of media gives them elephant or rhino feet, or at least something analgous to them
@@OmegaPictures318 yeah, which is pretty interesting
I hear Dinosaur King arcade music!
Oh question was triceratops more muscular on the lower body or the upper body or both
My friend has a question what is triceratops personality and character like if we don’t know what do you think it what will triceratops personality and character be like I always think it has a honey badger and aurochs like personality and am I right.
Omega Pictures are you G.I. Joe fan?
Reason and doubt
