Dinosaur skull fossil of Euphorbia
Halbersaurus, also known as Spiny Shield Ceratopsian, lived in the late Cretaceous period and is a type of herbivorous ceratopsian dinosaur. The neck shield halbersaurus had a large head and beautiful shield shaped circular decorations on its neck. Around the shield shaped ornament, there are six long horns of different sizes, which form the terrifying neck shield of the halberd dragon. This neck shield can not only scare the enemy. This neck shield usually looks spectacular and beautiful on strong and powerful males, but is not well-developed on females, so experts speculate that its main function is to showcase and attract the attention of the opposite sex. Because this neck shield looks very similar to a halberd in ancient Chinese weapons, it was named Jilong figuratively.

The saber toothed tiger was once widely distributed on the continents of Asia, Europe, and America. It appeared in the Oligocene 35 million years ago and became extinct in the Pleistocene one million years ago. Their living period was during the Quaternary glacial period, when herbivores were slow-moving and easily hunted. But the ice age has ended, and cold resistant large herbivores cannot adapt to climate change and migrate northward, dying due to insufficient food. The saber toothed tiger lost its food source, did not have an advantage in hunting, and even became a prey for humans. In the end, it could only go extinct with the extinction of large thick skinned animals.
