Real Torosaurus were large, thickly-built ceratopsians, dinosaurs that were related to Triceratops and that usually, but not always, had horns. In fact, Torosaurus was thought by some scientists to be the same animal as Triceratops, although this theory has since been rejected. It had one of the largest skulls of any land animal, living or extinct. Its name means "perforated lizard".

  • Some scientists (starting in 2010) consider Torosaurus fossils to simply represent mature Triceratops after their frills had extended, but later research (2011 and 2012) seems to prove otherwise.

  • Torosaurus was a large Ceratopsian Dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous.
  • Torosaurus is an enemy in Final Fantasy Dimensions. It always casts Reflect as soon as the battle start to dodge most spells. The enemy also utilizes various attacks to inflict major damage to the party. It's better to finish this foe quickly with strong F-Abilities.
  • Torosaurus was a bulky herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur related to Pachyrhinosaurus and Triceratops (according to some paleontologists, the two dinosaurs may be one and the same animal, with some sexual or chronological differences explaining the two different frills and other dissimilarities), but at about 9 meters (30 ft) in length and weighing an estimated 6-9 tonnes, it was smaller and lighter than Triceratops.
  • Torosaurus was a ceratopsid dinosaur indigenous to planet Earth millions of years ago during the Cretaceous period. It was similar to Pentaceratops and Triceratops, but more rare. Torosaurs were believed to inhabit the areas that would become Montana, Saskatchewan, South Dakota and Wyoming, amongst others.
  • Unknown to John Bell Hatcher or Othniel Marsh, a ripple in time transported a Torosaur into 1890, not long after Hatcher found the first known Torosaur fossils. It was killed by a group of hunters in Hatcher's employ who believed it to be some sort of large, diseased buffalo. People who ate it thought it tasted like chicken.

  • Torosaurus was a very strong creature that was prey for the giant tyrannosaurs. It was the largest long frilled ceratopsians.
  • Torosaurus is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur that lived during the late Maastrichtian stage of the Cretaceous period, between 68 and 66 million years ago. Its name means "perforated lizard" in reference to the large openings in its frill. Fossils have been discovered across the Western Interior of North America, from Saskatchewan to southern Texas.

  • Torosaurus possessed one of the largest skulls of any known land animal. The frilled skull reached up to 2.77 metres (9.1 ft) in length. From head to tail, Torosaurus is thought to have measured about 7.6 to 9 m (25 to 30 ft) long and weighed four to six tonnes. Torosaurus is distinguished from the contemporary Triceratops by an elongate frill with large openings (fenestrae), long squamosal bones of the frill with a trough on their upper surface, and the presence of five or more pairs of hornlets (epoccipitals) on the back of the frill. Torosaurus also lacked the long nose horn seen in Triceratops prorsus, and instead resembled the earlier and more basal Triceratops horridus in having a short nose horn. Three species have been named, Torosaurus latus, T. gladius and T. utahensis. T. gladiu
