Einiosaurus

Einiosaurus procurvicornis

Einiosaurus, one of the strangest dinosaurs. The forwards pointing, downward curving horn would seem to interfere with eating, especially if you envision ceratopsians as bison-esque grazers, but they more than likely predominantly browsed on shrubs, using their huge, powerful beaks to cut through tough cycad fronds/woody stems/etc. Reconstructed with speculative soft tissue (the thick orange skin) around the eyes.

Friend-shaped Ceratopsids!!!
