Real-world information
Pachycephalosarus was a two legged ornithischian dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous in what is now central North America. Its name, meaning "thick-headed lizard", comes from the 25 cm-thick dome on its skull. The most common hypothesis is that these domes were used for intraspecific combat, although this idea has its critics. Pachycephalosaurus is believed to have eaten leaves, seeds, and fruit, although its serrated front teeth suggest it may also have eaten some meat.
