About the Cosmoceratops

Cosmoceratops had as many as fifteen horns, making it the most horns of any dinosaur! He had one horn on his nose, one horn above both eyes and one horn on both cheekbones. The rest of the horns were scattered around the back of his skull. The horns were mainly used to show off.
