Lots of ceratopsians have been found in Alberta, I thunbed thru the book and
couldn't find a similar story, but Pentaceratops, Chasmosaurus,
Styracosaurus and one (of many) Triceratops have been found in that state.

The other interesting fact is that restorations have them as straight
legged, but their joints seem to indicate that their upper front legs were
more splayed/horizontal, like a corcodile or something, and thus they may
not have been charging around like rhinos at all (but slow)
