Speaking of juvenile, we're about to see a bunch of that kind of behavior, in 3, 2, 1...

“Speaking of juvenile, we’re about to see a bunch of that kind of behavior, in 3, 2, 1... “

I guess this will be a very horny topic for some.

[Senator Goldwater]

So Baby-Bop wasn’t real?

[Tanniker Smith]

Next they'll say there was no such thing as a brontosaurus!

Fred Flintstone will tell you otherwise.

First Pluto, now this.

I once read that the Tusken raiders (Sand people) are believed to be juvenile Jawas.

I wanted to read the article, but there was all sorts of stuff on the page. Didn’t want to click to close anything. :(
Anyway, drat, triceratops was always my favorite. Hate to think it was simply a figment. What’s this world coming to? Maybe we really are just holograms. Next thing you know they’ll say unicorns aren’t real.

Torosaurus:

Looks a lot like a triceratops to me...

[Tax-chick]

No way, my sons will never accept this. Don’t you know there are *colorful plastic figures* of Triceratops? James has named his Triceratops “Tank,” and he loses it all over the neighborhood.

There is no way I am telling my nephew that his favourite dinosaur never existed...

The Creation Museum

http://creationmuseum.org/

Welcome and Prepare to BelieveThe state-of-the-art 70,000 square foot museum brings the pages of the Bible to life, casting its characters and animals in dynamic form and placing them in familiar settings. Adam and Eve live in the Garden of Eden. Children play and dinosaurs roam near Eden’s Rivers. The serpent coils cunningly in the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Majestic murals, great masterpieces brimming with pulsating colors and details, provide a backdrop for many of the settings.

Leave Triceratops alone!

“Torosaurus” was a Triceratops that happened to survive to an elderly age. That’s why “Torosaurus” is so rare.

Hey moderator, close the thread already!

[Rocky]

Jeez, you start right off by insulting your readers. And then you expect adult responses?

To joke or not to joke, that is the question. You’ve left us on the horns of a dilemma.

Torosaurus? Sounds like bull.

[ApplegateRanch]

Individual Triceratops are estimated to have reached about 7.9 to 9.0 m (26.0–29.5 ft) in length, 2.9 to 3.0 m (9.5–9.8 ft) in height,[8][9] and 6.1–12.0 tonnes (13,000–26,000 lb) in weight.[10] The most distinctive feature is their large skull, among the largest of all land animals. It could grow to be over 2 m (7 ft) in length,[6] and could reach almost a third of the length of the entire animal.[5]

---

The frilled skull reached 2.6 meters (8.5 ft) in length. From head to tail, Torosaurus is thought to have measured about 7.6 meters (25 ft) long and weighed 4 to 6 tonnes (4.4 to 6.6 tons).

That is a LOT of baby fat!

Next you're going to tell me that Pluto isn't a planet, or that Barry isn't a natural born citizen.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[hellbender]

Nonsense. Georo-Soros was a quisling as a juvenile, not a Triceratops.

[Little Pig]

I don’t buy it. There are skeletons of juvenile Triceratops. Perhaps Torosaurus is a variation, but I can’t see it as a more mature form of the already huge Triceratops. More likely, this is a case of divergence, as with the Indian and African Elephant.

They do make a good case for the holes in the frill, stating that the bone type for the frill is of a kind that can and does change shape over time, and can both grow and shrink. However, There are far too many examples of both animals to conclusively lump them together.

Granted, I’m not a paleontologist, so I don’t have all the science the way Horner does, but this may be a case of being unable to see the forest because of all the trees in the way.

Better toss my novel Triceratops Bringing Hope and Change from the Planet Pluto, and start over. It's all just too unbelievable to make a good story any more.
