Welcome to my free coloring pages blog.
Today's new drawings are for younger children to color.
Both drawings are of Triceratops.
Triceratops Calf feeding on Ferns
These two drawings are of the Ceratopsian dinosaur called Triceratops.
Triceratops weighed up to 26,000 lbs or 13 tons. It may have been
able to run up to 20 mph. It was around 30 feet long and had
long eyebrow horns that were up to 3.77 feet or 1.15 meters long.
Triceratops had a ball joint where its neck connected with its head.
This means that an adult Triceratops could swing its head that
was bearing double swords nearly 4 feet long.
THIS drawing is for smaller children to draw and it is of a Triceratops calf
that is feeding on ferns. We now know that there was also grass by the time Triceratops lived.
It lived on the Earth for a long time for a single species.
It lived 83.5 to 66 million years ago. That is 17.5 million years that Triceratops lived
on Earth. The average length of the presence of a species is 3 million years.
So, Triceratops was very, very, very successful.
THIS drawing is a cartoon drawing for young children to color.

drawing of a fairly young Triceratops. It is for young children to color.
