Protoceratops is commonly known as the ancient arch-enemy of Velociraptor. In one particular fossil discovery, the skeletons of Velociraptor and a Protoceratops are entangled in a deathly embrace; the former has a toe-claw stuck into the latter’s neck, and an arm caught in the parrot-like beak. (see below)
Protoceratops was the largest of the horn-faced dinosaurs to be found in Asia, and is often seen as an intermediate form between the smaller Bagaceratops and the larger, North American Ceratopsoideans.
