* AccidentallyCorrectWriting: The flesh-eating ''Triceratops'' might qualify, seeing as evidence has surfaced to suggest that the species was actually at least partially omnivorous.

Revising one of the examples. The IDW comic has already been released a while ago and the article the link leads to does not exist anymore.
