Summary
| Description |
English: Oviraptor is a small theropod dinosaur that lived in Asia during the Late Cretaceous period. Originally discovered with a nest of eggs, it was assumed that Oviraptor fed on the eggs, hence the name, meaning "egg thief". However, it was later determined that it was in fact an Oviraptor nest. This individual, as well as many other fossils discovered, were exhibiting brooding behavior, and provided insight into the parenting habits of these and other dinosaurs. Oviraptor is estimated between 1.5-2 m in length, and weighed around 35 kg. It was covered in feathers, and had a parrot-like toothless beak. |
