Zuniceratops christopheri
Description:
Zuniceratops was a small, early ceratopsian dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period, around 90 million years ago. It is considered a transitional species between earlier ceratopsians and the later, more famous ones like Triceratops. Zuniceratops had a modest frill at the back of its skull and small brow horns, which suggest it was evolving the horned features that would later define its relatives. Found in North America, this herbivorous dinosaur was about 10 to 12 feet long and likely fed on low-lying plants.
