Jurassic Hunters Protoceratops Model
Young paleontologists will love the Jurassic Hunters Protoceratops Model from Geoworld. Protoceratops was a quadrupedal dinosaur that was partially characterized by its distinctive neck frill at the back of its skull. The exact size and shape of the neck frill varied by individual; some specimens had short, compact frills, while others had frills nearly half the length of the skull. Protoceratops was approximately 6 feet long and 2 feet high at the shoulder. A fully grown adult would have weighed less than 400 pounds. The large numbers of specimens found in high concentration suggest that Protoceratops lived in herds. You'll find more scientific information about this dinosaur in the Field Guide that accompanies your model. Geoworld Eduproducts is a line of educational games and toys, and is the brainchild of Dr. Stefano Piccini, geologist and paleontologist, who puts his 20 years of experience and his passion for nature in the design of all our toys. Our mission is to share our knowledge and passion for the world of Nature with children and young paleontologists of the world.
