Fun Facts About Dome-Headed Dinosaurs
Pachycephalosaurus had a thick bony dome on its head. For a long time, scientists debated whether it used that dome for head-butting. Studies have found healed injuries on some domes – a clue that these dinos really did bump heads, a bit like goats and sheep today. Here’s a fun twist: some scientists think two other dinosaur “species” with spiky heads were actually young Pachycephalosaurus, and that their heads changed a lot as they grew up. It lived at the end of the Cretaceous period in North America.
