Trivia

Origin

Axew's tusks are similar in appearance to Scutosaurid's or possibly Ceratopsid's cheekbone tusks. Its crest may be based on a Hadrosaurid's, more specifically Saurolophid's, or possibly a Corytophanid's, possibly the Plumed basilisk's.

Name origin

Axew is likely a combination of the words "axe" and "chew" or "hew". It may also be a form of "askew", referring to the angle of its tusks. Kibago may be derived from 牙 kiba meaning tusk, and 顎 ago meaning jaw.
