This comprehensive resource delves into the latest discoveries and research surrounding these fascinating prehistoric creatures. It focuses on key groups including Triceratops, Iguanodon, and various Hadrosaurs, offering detailed insights into their biology and evolution. The work is a testament to extensive paleontological study, bringing together contributions from leading experts in the field.
The purpose of this manual is to provide an in-depth exploration of Ceratopsian and Ornithopod dinosaurs for researchers, students, and enthusiasts. It details the classification and characteristics of these animals, drawing from the most current scientific understanding. This publication serves as a vital reference for anyone seeking to understand the diversity and significance of these iconic dinosaur groups.
Horns and Beaks completes Ken Carpenter's series on the major dinosaur types. As with his volumes on armored, carnivorous, and sauropodomorph dinosaurs, this book collects original and new information, reflecting the latest discoveries and research on these two groups of animals. The Ornithopods include Iguanodon, one of the first dinosaurs ever discovered and analyzed, and perhaps the most common and best-documented group, the hadrosaurs or "duckbilled dinosaurs." The Ceratopsians include Triceratops, known for its distinctive three-horned skull and protective collar.
