A new species of dinosaur has been discovered in southern
Utah, a cousin of the well-known Triceratops but with a huge, bulbous nose and
long, curving horns.The Natural History Museum of Utah revealed the fossilized
remains of the dino -- Nasutoceratops titusi -- Wednesday, while a research
paper announcing the new species appeared in U.K. scientific journal the
Proceedings of the Royal Society B."This dinosaur just completely blew us
away," Dr. Mark Loewen, from the museum and from the University of Utah,
told the BBC. "We would never have predicted it would look like this -- it
is just so outside of the norm for this group of dinosaurs."
