Brain fart misread at the end, the fossil was 13cm below the boundary of course!

[watchingshows]

Triceratops had a massive trident and a shield. Truly built like prehistoric gladiator.

I don't see why fights being in Triceratops' favour would be controversial. In most cases it's the predators playing catch-up in fights since they have to be careful not to get hurt or risk starvation.

A T-Rex fighting a Triceratops would have to exercise utmost caution not to get impaled while the Triceratops could just go in swinging.

The classic rivalry between Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus Rex.

[SmashBrosAssemble]

Triceratops was the size of an African Elephant & literally had a phalanx for a face, it was built to fend off Tyrannosaurus.

[pheonixwing]

if you were to actually ask a random person on the street "who had the most beef with the t rex?" they would just look at you weird lmao

[draiocht]

Triceratops and Tyrannosaurs beefing for who more iconic

[ianjones]

My 2 favourite rivalries are Allosaurus and Stegosaurus and T-Rex and Triceratops. T-Rex and Triceratops was an epic rivalry that was just as famous as Allosaurus and Stegosaurus was 80 million years earlier.

Tyrannosaurus vs Triceratops = *Ultimate Offense vs. Ultimate Defense*

[BullionApreciator]

It may a common pick, but Triceratops is still my favorite dinosaur.

6:31 - that image is comically brutal. Jesus!

[RedXlV]

Before Jurassic Park 3, T. rex vs Triceratops was *the* classic dinosaur rivalry.

[delancyj]

If you think about it, American Bison and Cape Buffalo don't HAVE to live in such large herds. Bull elephants live mostly solitary lives. Triceratops may have used a similar model.

[stax]

Y'know, a Bison looks like a typically chill Herbavore until it gets stressed. Triceratops goes pretty hard given that they could toe-toe with T-rex. Sure T-rex was probably Hunting them, but much like a Lion to a Bison that doesn't make the prey animal non-intense.

10:54 -- The only thing more terrifying than both triceratops and t-rex

[iksarguards]

It stands to reason that a healthy adult triceratops was pretty far down on the list of things any predator wanted to tangle with. Because that's typical how predator/prey relationships work.

The young, the sick, the weak. These are preyed upon.

[Cheetor]

Not to mention, the Triceratops has also gained a lot of popularity in pop-culture as well, such as Cera from The Land Before Time, the Dinobot Slag from G1 Transformers, and an advanced alien warrior race called Triceratons from the TMNT franchise.

[HorizonOverHeaven]

Ankylosaurus be like: Am I a joke to you?

[GucciLobster-bmgo]

If I had a nickel for every time a ceratopsid and a smaller predator were perfectly preserved mid-battle, I’d have 3 nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened thrice.
