A new dinosaur has been discovered that stood on its hind feet and was about the size of a spaniel.
The species of plant-eating dinosaur was discovered by researchers at the George Washington University and Chinese Academy of Sciences in Zingjiang Province, China.
The Hualianceratops may be related to the Triceratops, the scientists said in the announcement. The findings were published this week in the PLOS ONE online journal.
The Hualianceratops lived approximately 160 million years ago, early in the Late Jurassic Period.
