It grew very fast, reaching young adulthood at around 7 years old and dying at age 11.1
Its leg bones were over 1 meter (3.3 feet) long, which is unusual for such a big theropod.1
Gigantoraptor probably had feathers on its arms for display or to cover its eggs, but its large body may have been mostly bare.1

Its beak was very deep and U-shaped, helping it eat a wide variety of food, like a generalist.1
