This article is about scientist that have found to two new fossils of giant plant-eating horened dinosaurs. These dinosaurs were found in the southern part of Utah.The scientists say the new found dinos lived in the subtropical swampy environment. These new dinosaurs were the cousins of the Triceratops. They belong to a family known as ceratopsians, ceratops means  horned face in Greek. The two dinosaurs were Utahceratops gettyi which had large howrn over its nose. The other one was named Kosmoceratops richardsoni, it had atotal of 15 horns on its head.

 I decided to share this article because it is interesting  that they found two new animals that were never known until now. This relates to what were learning in class because we are learning about early history, and this is something in history we did not know until now.
