About Achelousaurus

Achelousaurus is a genus of centrosaurine ceratopsid, a type of quadrupedal herbivore characterized by beaks, horns, frills and teeth at the back of their jaws. These dinosaurs lived in what is now North America during the Late Cretaceous period. Their fossils are dated back to roughly 74 million years ago, many of which have been recovered from Montana. They were herbivorous dinosaurs that sometimes reached 20 feet in length, with a full grown skull measuring 5 feet long.
