Description
This herbivore lived about 78 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period. It could grow to about 6m in length. The dinosaur is named after Loki, the trickster god from Norse mythology, due to the similarity of its ornate face horns and crest to depictions of Loki’s helm.
Discovery
A relatively new dinosaur to have been discovered, Lokiceratops fossils were first unearthed in Montana’s Badlands in 2019. The specimen was noted to be a very large and very mature individual.
Paleoecology
The primary habitat of the Lokiceratops was riverine, rich in forested areas, where they likely co-habited with other ceratopsian dinosaurs. The impressive facial ornamentation of Lokiceratops (and other ceratopsians found in this area) could be a result of an isolated, island-like evolution, in which dinosaurs compete for mates and intimidate rivals with impressive horns, frills and colors.
Cohabitation Preferences
Behaviors are scripted in game files but are not guaranteed to happen. Dominance, territory, and traits determine whether they would actually fight.
