Scientists have unearthed a rare dinosaur fossil in Colorado, USA, believed to be 66 million years old, according to a recently released report.
This dinosaur's rare skull was discovered at a construction site and experts say it could help open up many secrets about the species of the dinosaur Triceratops.
Experts at the excavation site said that they are in the process of restoring the skeleton hoping to gather more bone in the future.
It is known that dinosaur horns and its shoulder bones were found in the early stages of excavation.
Even the construction area where dinosaur skulls were found has been strictly protected by authorities because of the fear that this information might attract the attention of antiquity hunters. So, it is very difficult for anyone to steal the bones or horns of this rare ancient dinosaur.
According to information published at the Chicago Tribune, it is believed that most Triceratop dinosaurs weigh more than six tons, and stand about 3-9 meters high.
In addition, scientists believe that this herbivore dinosaurs slowly move slowly, making them easy prey for other carnivorous dinosaurs such as the giant Tyrannosaurus rex.
