Lokiceratops rangiformis was a herbivore, weighed up to 5.5 tons, and grew to a length of almost 7 meters. In many ways, the lizard was similar to Triceratops, but, unlike him, did not have a horn on the nose. At the same time, it was larger and heavier than its relatives. It was comparable in size to a very large modern elephant.

The fossilized fragments “told” scientists that in this area there were at least five species of different dinosaurs with horns.
