Best Answer

Triceratops was a 30 foot long, 6 to 12 ton ceratopsian. Like nearly all ceratopsians, Triceratops was herbivorous and quadrupedal.

Triceratops had a bulky torso supported by its four stocky legs. The hind legs were slightly longer than the front legs and had four toes, while the front legs had three toes.

Triceratops had a thick tail, but it was short by dinosaur standards.

The head of Triceratops was huge in proportion it its body. It had a beak which it used for plucking leaves to eat. Above each eye it had a three foot long horn, and there was a smaller horn on the nose. A large, round frill extended from the back of the Triceratops's head, and the frill was probably used for display.

Triceratops was thirty feet long and nearly ten feet tall at the highest point. The length of the head and frill was about ten feet, while the body added another ten feet and the tail made up the final third of its length.
