An ancient fossil of a dinosaur was found in Alberta. It weighed as much as an African Elephant and was over 8 feet long. This massive horned dinosaur was one of the oldest members of the Triceratops family...It was thought to have lived 5 million years before the triceratops though. When studied closer it was found to have been too different from the other Pentaceratops family, it was a new species that was similiar to the Triceratops family. Longrich (paleontologist) thinks it was the ancestor of the Triceratops and the Torosaurus. This fossil was found in the Cretaceous period, which was over 74 million years ago.
