Iinyani ezimnandi
Oviraptor had no teeth. Instead it used a horny beak to crush its food.2
The first Oviraptor fossil was found lying on top of a nest of eggs. Scientists thought it was stealing them, but later they realized it was probably protecting its own eggs.1
Oviraptor was covered in feathers. Its tail ended in a pygostyle, a bone that supported a fan of feathers.1
Oviraptor lived about 75 to 71 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.1
Its arms were long and ended in three fingers with curved claws.1
The name Oviraptor means 'egg thief' because the first fossil was found with eggs. But scientists now think it was a good parent, not a thief.1

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Oviraptor
?How big was Oviraptor?
Oviraptor was about 1.6 to 2 metres (5.2 to 6.6 feet) long and weighed between 33 and 40 kilograms (73 to 88 pounds).1
?Did Oviraptor have teeth?
No, Oviraptor had no teeth. It had a horny beak like a parrot that could crush hard food.12
?What did Oviraptor eat?
Oviraptor was an omnivore. It ate hard fruits, eggs, and possibly shellfish, using its strong beak to crush them.2
?Did Oviraptor steal eggs?
No, that was a mistake. Scientists once thought Oviraptor stole eggs, but now we know it was actually a caring parent that brooded its own eggs.1
?Did Oviraptor have feathers?
Yes, Oviraptor was covered in feathers. Its tail ended in a pygostyle that supported a fan of feathers.1
?When did Oviraptor live?
Oviraptor lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 85 to 75 million years ago.2
?Where was Oviraptor found?
Oviraptor fossils were found in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, at a place called the Flaming Cliffs.1
?What does the name Oviraptor mean?
Oviraptor means 'egg thief' in Latin, because the first fossil was found lying on a nest of eggs. But we now know it was a good parent, not a thief.1
Inyaniso ngeentsomi
Intsomi: Oviraptor stole and ate the eggs of other dinosaurs.
Inyaniso: The Oviraptor fossil was found on a nest, but it was probably sitting on its own eggs to keep them warm, like a bird. It likely ate plants, fruits, and small animals, not eggs.1

- Kusaxoxwa ngayo
- Scientists are not sure exactly what Oviraptor ate. Its strong beak could crush hard objects, but whether it mainly ate plants, eggs, or shellfish is still debated.21
