Everyone else is posting their top 5 favorite dinosaurs because some broken jaw bone was named 200 years ago. So, I will, too.

My list is always changing. And besides, I love all Animalia, because animals are all cool.

5. Protoceratops

It was really difficult to figure which dinosaurs were really by favorites (I ♥ them all, but some still pop). Some dinosaurs I considered were Yi, Gigantspinosaurus, Saurophaganax, Nigersaurus, and Corythoraptor.

For #5 I picked this hardy desert herbivore from the Cenomanian. It was dog sized, but it had a powerful beak for fighting Velociraptor. The Fighting Dinosaurs specimen makes it even cooler.

4. Guanlong

This tyrannosaur (tyrannosauroid for the picky ones) has a name and crest that pop. Guanlong lived in China around 160,000,000 B.C. I know Yangchuanosaurus was the apex predator of the region, but I don't care. This little fellow ate little ceratopsians like Yinlong.

3. Turanoceratops

This little ceratopsian was only about 380 lbs, but it's still awesome. It lived in the deserts and estuaries of Turonian Uzbekistan. The giant raptor Ulughbegsaurus lived with it in the Bissekty Formation, but sadly this little pony ceratopsian couldn't really fight it.

2. Timurlengia

Y'all probably already know my top 2. Timurlengia was the primary predator of my last dinosaur, Turanoceratops. It too lived in the Bissekty Formation. It was a little tyrannosaur that was only like 600 lbs at most, but it's still my love. It was slimmer and faster than the big T. rex that you've never heard of.

1. Baryonyx

Yeah. Baryonyx walkeri is just awesome. Cool name, cool size, cool claws, cool snout. This species is more well known than larger spinosaurs like Spinosaurus, so it's skeleton is used often to help determine what those other spinosaurs were like. Baryonyx was 30 feet long, but the specimen may be a juvenile, so adults could maybe reach Suchomimus sizes. This guy should've been in Walking With Dinosaurs: Giants of the Sky instead of Utahraptor (which isn't from Europe).
