Scientific Name: Protoceratops andrewsi
Pronunciation: pro-toh-serr-ah-tops
Meaning in Latin: ‬First horned face
Code Name: Proto
Discovered by: Walter W. Granger & William King Gregory, 1923
Classification: Animalia, Chordata,‭ ‬Reptilia,‭ ‬Dinosauria,‭ ‬Ornithischia,‭ Genasauria, Neornithischia, Cerapoda, Marginocephalia, Ceratopsia, Neoceratopsia, Coronosauria, Protoceratopsidae

Temporal range: Late Cretaceous, 75 to 72 million years ago
Location: ‬Mongolia, Asia
Length: 1.8 meters (6 feet) long
Weight: 82.7 kilograms (0.09 tons)
Diet: Herbivore

There have been dozens of skeletons of Protoceratops found, both adult and juvenile, and so the whole growth pattern is known. It was found by the expeditions to the Gobi Desert undertaken by the American Museum of Natural History in the 1920s. It seems to have lived in herds, and its remains are so abundant that it had been termed the "sheep of the Cretaceous".

Protoceratops is a heavy animal with short legs, a deep tail and a heavy head equipped with a powerful parrot-like beak. Although a member of the horned dinosaurs, it does not have true horns. Two forms of adult are known, a lightweight form with a low frill, and a heavier form with a big frill and a bump on the snout where a horn would have been. These probably represent the two sexes, with the males having the heavier head.

Model based on: Protoceratops from Dinosaur Planet (2003)
Spore Abilities: Level 4 Sprint, Level 2 Bite, Level 1 Charge, Level 2 Strike, Level 4 Sing, Level 4 Dance, Level 2 Charm
