JURASSIC PARK Los Archivos Perdidos
Microceratops
Epoca: Cretaceo tardio, hace 70 millones de años
Distribucion: Asia
Longitud: Hasta 80 cms
Peso: Hasta 2 kilos
Dieta: Herbivoro
Microceratops es uno de los dinosaurios mas pequeños de Jurassic Park, si bien esta emparentado con el gigantesco Triceratops. Es un herbivoro nervioso e hiperactivo que puede correr a 75 kilometros por hora y saltar varias veces su propia altura. Esta agilidad le permite incluso trepar a los arboles, en los que a menudo se refugia cuando se siente atacado.
Los machos se distinguen facilmente por sus colores vistosos, mientras que las hembras suelen tener coloraciones mas cripticas para ocultarse de los depredadores mientras protegen sus nidos.
Los Microceratops son animales ruidosos e inteligentes que viven en grupos dominados por un macho adulto y varios subordinados. Las hembras son sin embargo quienes eligen al lider y pueden derrocarlo si sienten que no cumple bien con sus funciones. Todas las hembras parecen tener el mismo rango.
Se alimentan principalmente de frutos y de algunas hojas y brotes; su fuerte pico es tambien su principal arma, y pueden morder con suficiente fuerza para triturar los huesos de una mano humana, por ejemplo. A pesar de su caracter usualmente pacifico y hasta jugueton, los Microceratops pelean fieramente si son atacados por un depredador.
Sus vocalizaciones son muy variadas, pero casi todas bastante ruidosas.
TRIVIA: Debido a que se les dejo merodear en semilibertad por todo el Parque, los Microceratops dieron muchos problemas a los guardabosques de Jurassic Park al colarse en los recintos de dinosaurios mas grandes. Se necesitaron nada menos que 8 dias para recapturar a un grupo que apareció en el recinto del T-Rex. Asombrosamente, el superpredador no prestó la mas minima atencion a los ruidosos intrusos, aunque estuvo a punto de devorar a uno de los desesperados guardabosques.
INOFENSIVO A MENOS QUE SE LE PROVOQUE


JURASSIC PARK The Lost Files
Microceratops
Age: Late Cretaceous, 70 mya
Range: Asia
Length: Up to 80 cms
Weight: Up to 2 kgs
Diet: Herbivore
Microceratops is one of the smallest Jurassic Park dinosaurs, despite it being closely related to humongous Triceratops. It is a nervous and hyperactive herbivore able to run up to 75 kms p/h and jump several times its own height. This agility enables it even to climb trees, and it actually takes refuge in them when it feels threatened.
Males are easily identified due to their bright colors, while females have a more cryptic coloration to hide from predators during breeding season.
Microceratops is a noisy and intelligent animal that lives in groups dominated by an adult male and several subordinates. Females are, however, the ones who decide who will be the alpha male, and they can overthrown him if they feel that he is not fulfilling its functions properly.
All females seem to have the same rank.
They feed mainly on fruit, and also some leaves and buds; their strong beak is also their main weapon and they can bite strong enough to, say, break a human hand's bones. Despite their peaceful and even playful personality, Microceratops fights bravely if caught by a predator.
Their vocalizations are many and very diverse, but all of them quite noisy.
TRIVIA: Because they were allowed to roam semi-free around the park, Microceratops caused a lot of trouble to the Jurassic Park rangers when they went into the enclosures of larger dinosaurs. Not less than 8 days were needed to recapture a group that appeared in the T-Rex paddock. Amazingly, the superpredator didn´t pay any atention to the noisy intruders, although it did try to devour one of the desperate park rangers.
HARMLESS UNLESS PROVOKED

I live in my own world, but don't worry, they know me here.

I believe in Jesus Christ as my Savior. If you do too and aren't scared to admit it, then copy and paste this in your signature.

Tecnicamente es un ceratopsio, pero no un ceratopsido. Los ceratopsidos eran los grandes, como Triceratops y Styracosaurus. :)
