I want one as a pet!
Microceratus gobiensis is a ceratopsian dinosaur commonly known as the microceratops.
When people think of ceratopsian dinosaurs they usually think of the Triceratops or the Styracosaurus. I find the microceratops so cool because it looks like a mini two legged version of the horned giants. Microceratops only grew to around two feet long and less than one foot tall.
Distribution:
Microceratops is one of the oldest ceratopsians living from around 127 to 66 million years ago . It lived in the area which is now central Asia.
