"Social Behavior Confirmed: Triceratops Lived in Herds"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Ancient Origins
A 11-year excavation in Wyoming has uncovered 1,200 bones and bone fragments from at least five Triceratops horridus specimens, shedding light on their social behavior and migratory lifestyle. The fossils suggest that these dinosaurs lived in herds and followed the same migratory route, challenging the previous belief of solitary behavior. The discovery also provides insights into their size, diet, and growth rate, leading to the upcoming exhibition at the Naturalis Biodiversity Center in the Netherlands.
