1

Citipati means 'funeral pyre lord' in Sanskrit, named after a skeleton-like spirit in Tibetan folklore.1

2

One famous Citipati fossil is nicknamed 'Big Mama' because it was found sitting on a nest of eggs.1

3

Citipati had a pygostyle, a fused tailbone that supported a fan of feathers, just like modern birds.1

4

Its arms and tail were covered in long feathers that probably helped shade and protect its eggs and babies.1

5

Citipati was one of the largest oviraptorids, about the size of an emu, and weighed as much as a large dog.1

6

Scientists think Citipati may have brought small dinosaurs to its nest to feed its hatchlings.1

?How big was Citipati?

Citipati was about 2.5 to 2.9 metres long and weighed 75 to 110 kilograms. That is much larger than an emu.1

?What did Citipati eat?

Citipati was probably omnivorous, meaning it ate both plants and meat. Scientists think it may have brought small dinosaurs to its nest to feed its babies.12

?Did Citipati have feathers?

Yes, Citipati had long feathers on its arms and tail. These feathers probably helped protect its eggs and babies from sun, wind, and rain.1

?Why did Citipati sit on its eggs?

Citipati sat on its eggs to keep them warm and safe, just like birds do today. Its arms spread over the nest helped shade and protect the eggs.13

?When did Citipati live?

Citipati lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 75 to 71 million years ago. It lived in the desert of Mongolia.12

?Was Citipati a dinosaur?

Yes, Citipati was a dinosaur, specifically a type of bird-like theropod called an oviraptorid. It was not a bird, but it was very closely related to birds.12

Ku tas léeb yu dul dëgg

Léeb: Oviraptorids like Citipati were egg thieves.

Dëgg: The name Oviraptor means 'egg thief', but fossils show Citipati was a caring parent that brooded its own eggs, not a robber.1

Scientists are not sure if Citipati was mostly a plant-eater or an omnivore that also ate meat.1
