ABOUT:
Wendiceratops pinhornensis was discovered by acclaimed fossil hunter Wendy Sloboda in southern Alberta in 2010. It lived 79 million years ago, making it one of the oldest named members of the horned dinosaur family that includes Triceratops.
The new find is one of the most spectacularly adorned species in the horned dinosaur group, and it helps scientists understand the early evolution of skull ornamentation in an iconic group of dinosaurs characterized by their horned faces.
The research on Wendiceratops was completed by Dr. David Evans from the Royal Ontario Musem and University of Toronto, and Dr Michael Ryan from the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. Their research has greatly increased the understanding of the evolution of horned dinosaurs.
