My guest today is a fossil of a
Protoceratops
. This dashing dino was dug up in the Gobi Desert in Mongolia during the 1920s.
Paleontologists named this kind of dinosaur
Protoceratops andrewsi (pro-toh-SER-uh-tops an-DROO-zee) in honor of the last name of the guy who led the expeditions that discovered him Roy Chapman Andrews

. Please slap your bony hands together for my very close fossil friend..."Proto Andy!"
