Why Kids Love Learning About Protoceratops

If you're looking for protoceratops coloring pages and facts for kids, you've found the little dinosaur with the big frill! Protoceratops is the hornless cousin of Triceratops - a sheep-sized ceratopsian with a large bony frill but NO horns. Kids love Protoceratops because it's the perfect size to imagine as a pet, and its discovery gave us the amazing "fighting dinosaurs" fossil: a Protoceratops and Velociraptor locked in combat forever.

Every coloring page builds STEM skills. Protoceratops teaches about the diversity of ceratopsians and how fossils can capture dramatic moments in time.

Amazing Protoceratops Facts Every Kid Should Know

  • Fact 1 - When It Lived: Late Cretaceous, 75-71 million years ago, in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia.
  • Fact 2 - What It Ate: Herbivore that ate tough desert plants with its parrot-like beak.
  • Fact 3 - How Big It Was: About 6 feet long and 2 feet tall - roughly sheep-sized, weighing 400 pounds.
  • Fact 4 - Its Superpower: Protoceratops was the first dinosaur found with nests of babies nearby - proving dinosaurs cared for their young! The famous "fighting dinosaurs" fossil shows it battling a Velociraptor.
