Some may think this is a Triceratops because of the horns, but actually, this is a Torosaurus. The difference is that this dinosaur’s legs grew out of the sides of the body, similar to a lizard, and the Triceratops' legs grew straight down like an elephant's. They are both herbivores (plant-eaters), and both used their horns for protection.
This is what Wisconsin would have looked like 400 million years ago, even before the dinosaurs roamed the Earth. All animals lived underwater at this time. These fossils were discovered in the area around the Brewers stadium, so if you start digging for dinosaur bones in your backyard, you won’t find any, but you may find fossils similar to these!
What is happening here? Do you think this T. rex is hunting that Triceratops because he’s mean or because he's hungry? If you said hungry, you were right! The meat-eating dinosaurs had to hunt for their food, and the slower Triceratops lost this battle. We are unsure why the T. rex had such tiny arms, as they are too short to help in a battle, but the T. rex had the large head, strong tail, and speed on its side.
