Carnotaurus is the only known carnivorous bipedal animal with a pair of horns on the frontal bone. [45] The use of these horns is not entirely clear.

Image pose differs appreciably from known range of motion. Example: Theropod dinosaurs reconstructed with overly flexed tails or pronated "bunny-style" hands. Exception: If the range of motion is debated in the scientific literature, as is the case with sauropod neck position.
Sitting kneel: where the thighs are near horizontal and the buttocks sit back on the heels with the upper body vertical - for example as in Seiza, Virasana, and Vajrasana (yoga) Taking a knee: where the upper body is vertical, one knee is touching the ground while the foot of the other leg is placed on the ground in front of the body

Protoceratops skeleton at the Wyoming Dinosaur Center.

Brachyrostrans were relatively lightly built compared to other large theropods, ranging in size from 6.1–7.8 m (20–26 ft) [3] and 1400–2000 kg (1.6–2.3 short tons) in weight. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] They are considered the most derived abelisaurids, with traits like very short, narrow skulls and extremely reduced forearms, even more so than other ...
