The Last Dinosaur

A Triceratops in The Last Dinosaur

After stealing the Polar-Borer, the Tyrannosaurus rex tried to bury it in a cave, but a Triceratops bursts out of the cave. The two beasts had a vicious battle, biting and goring one another. The Tyrannosaurus eventually gained the upper hand and threw the Triceratops to the ground, then sank its sharp claws into its enemy's stomach. The T-Rex tore a huge gash into the Triceratops' neck, after which it gave out a death cry and died.

Heisei Series
