I thought they were like Sharpteeth and lived in the mysterious beyond. But I just noticed there's one living in the great valley in 11! Funny...maybe there are some that are "civilized", lol!

I believe there's a topic on this already somewhere on GOF. They were pachycephalosauruses, which are herbivores. I think their LBT name is usually domehead; I don't think the movies officially named them.

You mean the pachycephalosaurs? We don't know what they ate. They are the only ornitischians for which we cannot be certain that their diet was made only of plants. So, with our current level of knowledge, you can have them eat almost anything. And the makers of LBT used this fact. In LBT 1 they were shown as carnivores (at least that was my impression). In LBT 1 this type of dinosaur was shown in a movie for the first time.
EDIT: DarkHououmon beat me to it.

Didn't somebody write a fanfiction from their point of view?

^Yep, FlipperBoidSkua. :)

DarkHououmon is correct. Here (http://gangoffive.net/index.php?showtopic=1254) is the thread discussing the Pachycephalosaurus of LBT. Page 2 has a post by me discussing the diets of those dinosaurs, in case you were interested in that subject.
Also, FlipperBoidSkua's fanfiction is titled Guilty Until Proven Innocent, and it offers a very intriguing explanation for the LBT I domeheads' seemingly predatory behavior. I highly recommend it if you like "pure" LBT fanfics and don't mind if they're a little dark. :yes
