Bagaceratops- Meaning: Small Horned Face

Bagaceratops (Bag-a-ser-a-tops ) is a genus of ceratopsian dinosaur that lived in Asia around 80 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous. It was around 1 metres (3 ft) long, 0.5 metres (1.5 ft) high, and weighed around 22 kg (50 lb). It was found in Mongolia. Baga is Mongolian for "small"; ceratops is Greek for "horn face".

Bagaceratops had a smaller frill and more triangular skull than its close relative Protoceratops, but was otherwise very similar, having a beak but no brow horns. Bagaceratops evolved later but is considered the more primitive of the two.

Bagaceratops is known from five complete and twenty partial crania, the longest of which is 17 cm long. The skulls are spread throughout animal's the life cycle, so the growth cycle is relatively well understood, with the smallest being only 4.7 cm long.

Bagaceratops were herbivorous dinosaurs.
