Daily Dino Fact: Horns and Frills

Saturday, February 13th, 2010
Frill or Party Hat? It's all in how you look at it!

Frill or Party Hat? It's all in how you look at it!

Iron_Head wants to know, “Did dinos besides cerapods have horns?”

As far as I’ve been able to tell from my research, all horned dinos fall into the cerapoda suborder. Of those, my favorites are the ceratopsians. Their horns and frills look so cool, and there is such a variety - almost like fancy hats on their heads!

The heavy frill of ceratopsians like Triceratops may have been for protection, but other ceratopsians had smaller frills, and even large openings in their frills, which wouldn’t have been much use against a predator. Some scientists think the frills may have worked as heat radiators, signaling devices, or to attract mates.

See, what did I tell you? Hats do the same thing (well, maybe not the heat radiating so much - lol!)

Cooking with Horns!

Horns and the gang serving up some tasty treats

Horns and the gang serving up some tasty treats

It was another great night of WeboFest tonight when HORNS showed up at the Camposaurus Tent for the secret party. Turns out that Horns had an empty stomach and wanted to spend the evening cooking! Cooking with Horns was a total blast and everyone busted out their chef hats to prepare some tasty treats.

Everything was going fine until Horns got impatient, opened a can of beans and gobbled it only to rip a loud, smelly toot moments later. It was all good though when everyone whipped up a tasty pie to pass around and share.

After the fun in the kitchen everyone bolted to the Tonto Plateau where the rest of the evening was spent playing Demo Derby, Dance Party or barfing on the big tub of candy.

Check the blog for the next secret WeboFest party, they just keep getting better and better!

Daily Dino Fact - Horns really do rule!

What up, Webosaurs! Everyone keeps asking me how I got so awesome, and I tell them I drink Swamp Juice. But I also have something that makes me way more awesome than everyone else (other than my sweet pectorals).

The skull of the triceratops is about one third the length of its body, and is one of the largest skulls of any documented land animal. So, yah - I have the biggest skull. I know you’re jealous. That’s cool too.

Although Triceratops have 3 horns on their heads, only the two horns on our foreheads are thought to be strong and long enough to withstand blows. If that darn swamp monster comes after me, I would lower my head and charge to show him what’s up. That’s right. I rule.

werd,
Horns.
