| "El Agujaceratops"... |
Hoy seguiremos nuestro viaje imaginario por la prehistoria. En esta ocasi贸n les hablar茅 de otro ser fabuloso: "EL AGUJACERATOPS"...
¿Cu谩l era su h谩bitat?:
El Agujaceratops vivi贸 durante el Cret谩cico Superior (hace 75 - 70 millones de a帽os) en lo que hoy es Texas, Estados Unidos. Los f贸siles indican que su h谩bitat abarcar铆a zonas pantanosas y bosques cercanos al margen occidental del antiguo mar interior occidental.
¿Qu茅 com铆a?
El Agujaceratops era un dinosaurio herb铆voro se alimentaba principalmente de plantas bajas, arbustos y vegetaci贸n dura del periodo Cret谩cico Superior usando su pico c贸rneo y dientes adaptados para cortar vegetaci贸n o material vegetal en su h谩bitat de lo que hoy es Norteam茅rica.
¿Cu谩les eran sus depredadores?:
El Agujaceratops comparti贸 su h谩bitat en el oeste de Norteam茅rica durante el Cret谩cico Superior con grandes carn铆voros. Sus principales depredadores y amenazas fueron los grandes dinosaurios ter贸podos de la 茅poca y el gigante cocodriliforme Deinosuchus, de gran tama帽o.
¿Qu茅 tama帽o y peso ten铆a?:
El Agujaceratops med铆a cerca de 15 metros de largo, alcanzaba unos 3 metros de alto y pesaba aproximadamente 2 toneladas m茅tricas.

Today, we Today, we continue our imaginary journey through prehistory. This time, I will tell you about another amazing creature: "AGUJACERATOPS"...
What was its habitat?
Agujaceratops lived during the Late Cretaceous period (75–70 million years ago) in what is now Texas, United States. Fossils indicate that its habitat encompassed swampy areas and forests near the western edge of the ancient Western Interior Seaway.
What did it eat?
Agujaceratops was a herbivorous dinosaur that fed primarily on low-growing plants, shrubs, and tough vegetation of the Late Cretaceous period, using its horny beak and teeth adapted for shearing plant matter in its habitat—what is now North America.
What were its predators?
Agujaceratops shared its habitat in western North America during the Late Cretaceous with large carnivores. Its main predators and threats included the large theropod dinosaurs of the era and the gigantic crocodyliform *Deinosuchus*.
What were its size and weight?
Agujaceratops measured nearly 15 meters in length, stood about 3 meters tall, and weighed approximately 2 metric tons.
