Triceratops was a quadruped, meaning that it walked on all four legs. They weren't built for speed, but that doesn't mean they were slow. Triceratops did have a special ability to quickly rotate, which was useful in defending itself against predators like Tyrannosaurus.
They were a slow animal, so it used its horns to defend itself.
Triceratops was a quadruped, meaning that it walked on all four legs. They weren't designed for speed, but that doesn't mean they couldn't travel rapidly for short bursts, similar to elephants.

The dinosaur with three horns is called the "Triceratops". It is a large plant eater with a frill protecting it's neck. The Triceratops uses the horns for spearing plants, and as weapons to protect itself from predators.

Triceratops was primarily a quadrupedal dinosaur, meaning it walked on all four limbs. Its sturdy legs and large body allowed it to support its weight and move effectively across various terrains.
