The skull of Uintatherium is roughly three times longer than it is wide. It features very long nasal bones that comprise nearly half of the total skull length. Specifically, these bones project forward and completely overhang the external nares.
The skull also displays three pairs of well-developed bony outgrowths, or horns, which were likely covered in skin rather than keratin.
