Scientists believe the frill may have played a role in display, communication or species recognition, while the horns could have provided protection against predators. Chasmosaurus was a herbivore, using its strong beak to crop vegetation from the prehistoric landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it's great for learning\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRealistic representation of a Late Cretaceous ceratopsian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemonstrates the distinctive skull, horns and frill of Chasmosaurus\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvides an excellent introduction to dinosaur defence and social behaviour\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHelps explain how herbivorous dinosaurs were adapted to their environments\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEncourages interest in palaeontology, anatomy and prehistoric ecosystems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for educational displays and imaginative play\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChasmosaurus lived alongside a remarkable range of dinosaurs, including Centrosaurus, Corythosaurus, Parasaurolophus and Gorgosaurus, providing plenty of opportunities to recreate a realistic Late Cretaceous ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its distinctive horns, enormous frill and carefully sculpted anatomy, this Chasmosaurus model offers a realistic and engaging way to learn about one of the most fascinating herbivores of the Late Cretaceous.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NovusDomain","offers":[{"title":"Brown","offer_id":49156368564441,"sku":null,"price":53.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green","offer_id":49156368597209,"sku":null,"price":53.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/7135\/6633\/files\/IMG_9723_1024x1024_2x_ba90ada3-a7dd-4fef-840c-9ec9fe71ae02.webp?v=1787802731","url":"https:\/\/novusdomain.com\/products\/chasmosaurus-model","provider":"NovusDomain","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
