Pachycephalosaurus (meaning "thick-headed lizard") is an extinct genus of pachycephalosaurid dinosaur that lived in North America during the Late Cretaceous period. It is famous for its 10 inch thick dome on its head that was used for headbutting others of its kind.
Appearances[]
Jurassic Park franchise[]
The Lost World: Jurassic Park features a Pachycephalosaurus, along with Gallimimus and Parasaurolophus, being chased by hunters on a Game Trail. It also appeared in Jurassic World and would have appeared in Camp Cretaceous but was cut.
In Jurassic World, a Pachycephalosaurus escaped from its paddock but was tranquilized and recaptured.
It remains unknown whether Pachycephalosaurus will return in Jurassic World: Chaos Theory.
