# Ceratosaurus dentisulcatus

*Ceratosaurus* is a genus of carnivorous theropod dinosaur that lived during the **Late Jurassic period** in North America and Europe.
It is easily recognized by the distinctive horn on its snout and its powerful, agile build, making it a versatile predator of its time.

---

## Appearance
- Prominent nasal horn and smaller brow horns above the eyes
- Deep, robust skull with sharp serrated teeth
- Muscular body with strong hind limbs built for sprinting
- Long tail used for balance during fast pursuits
- In-game size: **9 blocks long** and **3.5 blocks tall**

---

## Behavior
- **Hostile**: Will attack players and most mobs on sight
- Hunts medium-sized creatures and will chase prey over long distances
- Roars periodically to assert dominance and intimidate nearby mobs
- May patrol its territory, especially near forests or riverbanks

---

## Obtaining
Ceratosaurus does not spawn naturally. To obtain one, you must:
1. Enable [Experimental Features]($references/experimental)
2. Find ![](@jurassic-saga:textures/item/natural/entity/animal/jp3/ceratosaurus/ceratosaurus_fossil_remains) [**Ceratosaurus Remains**]($content/items/fossil) or fossils
3. Use the fossil revival process to create a Ceratosaurus
4. Hatch from an **Alligator Egg** type egg

---

## Diet
- **Carnivore**: feeds on <img src="https://i.imgur.com/4K6xsJA.gif" width={32} height={32} style={{imageRendering: "pixelated"}}/> meat sources
- Prefers medium to large prey but will scavenge if necessary

---

## Drops
When defeated, Ceratosaurus may drop:
- ![](@jurassic-saga:textures/item/natural/entity/animal/jp3/ceratosaurus/ceratosaurus_fossil_remains) [**Ceratosaurus Remains**]($content/items/fossil)
- ![](@jurassic-saga:textures/item/natural/entity/animal/jp3/ceratosaurus/ceratosaurus_raw) [**Ceratosaurus Raw Meat**]($content/items/meats)
