Though I think the latest theory is that Triceratops is just a teenage form of another dinosaur. link

The other way around isn't it? Working from memory (can't check the link at work) wasn't it that Chasmosaurus was an immature Triceratops?

From the article:

Scientists are saying that the Triceratops dinosaur — you know, the three horned one — was actually a juvenile form of a Torosaurus, the three horned dinosaur you don't know.

And the ones with the leather jackets were the juvenile delinquents.

Hey Mike, is it February? Have you visited AchesonCreations.com lately and seen the New & Upcoming section? Do you ever read comments to your posts?

This is like when they decided Pluto wasn't a planet anymore. Tell them to stop changing things!

This is like when they decided Pluto wasn't a planet anymore.

Because Pluto is so small and has an odd orbit, many astronomers are keen to exclude it from the definition of a full-fledged planet. Trouble is, they can't find any technical way to do so!

The most recent attempt is to say Pluto fails the planet test as it has not cleared the neighborhood of its orbit. It's amazing that they assert this with a straight face, as the Earth and Jupiter also have not cleared the neighborhood of their respective orbits (both of those planets share their orbit with asteroids). So, is the Earth not a planet?

I stand corrected!

Although as Triceratops was defined and named before Torosaurus, it's the latter that gets renamed.

Stratos, did it say what year? These are my comments not yours!!! I have been waiting over 3 years now!!! DO you understand !!!!! Mike Adams

Scientists are saying that the Triceratops dinosaur — you know, the three horned one — was actually a juvenile form of a Torosaurus, the three horned dinosaur you don't know.

Workers who focus on the Ceratopian dinosaurs don't believe this to be the case. There are just too many changes in morphology necessary for Triceratops to "become" Torosaurus. It would literally be like fully adult humans developing a fontanelle again, after having the bone grow over in early childhood.
