Prehistoric Arena- Battle Three: Ankylosaurus vs. Triceratops
This is the first battle between two herbivorous dinosaurs. One thing to remember is that every animal in a fight starts at full health even if it was injured in it's previous fight. For example if Baryonyx beats Velociraptor, but has heavy injuries, then it will start off with no damage when it battles a Tyrannosaurus. Enjoy the fight!

Ankylosaurus
Length: 20- 35 ft.

Weight: 2-5 tons

Height: 4 ft. at the shoulder

Diet: Low lying plants

Region: Woodlands of U.S.A and Canada

Advantages
- Was tank- like, with armor covering the top of it's body, preventing a head on assault

- Had a club like tail, which could do extreme damage to predators

Disadvantages
- It was a shorter creature, meaning an assault from above could be deadly

- If flipped over, it's underside had no protection and was vulnerable

Triceratops
Length: 25- 30 ft.

Weight: Up to 8 tons

Height: 10 ft. tall at the frill

Diet: Low lying plants

Region: Western U.S.A and western Canada

Advantages
- Two long horns above it's eyes and one smaller horn by it's beak that could be used during a charge or as a defense

- It's frill was made of hard bone structure which would be tough to break or puncture

Disadvantages
- No armor on its body unlike the Ankylosaur it will be fighting

Battle
''The battle takes place in a woodland. A waterfall runs off of a cliff, in a small bay- like area in a clearing. It is raining heavily.''

The Triceratops tended to her offspring nudging them with her beak. A week earlier her mate had held off a Tyrannosaur while she and the cubs made a getaway. She hadn't seen him since, and feared he was dead. As they walked to their nest, the rain fell harder. She could make out a vague shape near her nest location. The Ankylosaur was there marking its territory. The Triceratops let out a trumpeting sound, catching the Ankylosaur's attention. It turned to face the newcomer.
