    The dinosaur with the most horns still has the most horns. Present tense is acceptable in reference to the record.

    I immediately thought styracosaur, but I guess I’d need a definition of horn. Does and anklyosaur count? They’ve got spikes, but not really horns. Do the spikes on a pachycephalosaur count? Do they have to be facing foreward? Do they have to be on the head?

    Now I feel like I don’t know as much about dinosaurs as I once did.

      Birds are literal dinosaurs. Not descended from dinosaurs but living dinosaurs.
