These finds showed that the eggs in question probably belonged to Oviraptor itself, and that the specimen was actually brooding its eggs. Oviraptor lived in the late Cretaceous period, during the late Campanian stage about 75 million years ago; only one definitive specimen is known (with associated eggs), from the Djadokhta Formation of Mongolia, though a possible second specimen (also with eggs) comes from the northeast region of Inner Mongolia, China, in an area called Bayan Mandahu."@en .

This possible diet of eggs led Osborn to name the genus and species Oviraptor philoceratops, which means \"egg plunderer, lover of ceratopsians. At first Oviraptor was thought to be a member of the Ornithomimidae but it's fingers were not the same length and they ended in strongly curved claws. The ornithomimids had fingers abouth the same length and almost straight claws. The skull of Oviraptor was short with large eye sockets, a crest above the snout, and a deep lower jaw with a large fenestra (opening) in the middle. Like the ornithomimids, both the upper and lower jaws were beaklike and toothless. The crest was full of sinuses, or cavities, which were filled with air when it was alive. The unusual jaws show that the animal had a specialized diet. Unlike most theropods, except the ornithomimids, Oviraptor and other members of the family Caenagnathidae were probably herbivorous (plant-eaters). Recently discovered specimens show that aside from the skull Oviraptor was similar to other theropods. An adult was about three feet tall at the shoulder and about six feet long, and the animal could use them to grasp. The long back legs show it had been a good runner. With no teeth, running may have been its only defense against other theropods. Since the original specimen was discovered, several other skulls with skeletons have been found. These new specimens show that the size of the crest on each animal was different. The crest ranges from almost none to large. These differences are probably because of the different ages of the animals. This is supported by the fact that the small, nearly large eye sockets while the large-crested forms had relatively small eye sockets. In many modern animals the size of the eye socket in proportion to the rest of the head gets smaller as the animal gets older, so the same may have been through for dinosaurs. Another studies say that the Oviraptor, like other small dinosaurs like Velociraptor, maybe had feathers on its body, becoming the theory of the evolution of dinosaurs to birds more realistic. Oviraptor was closely related to the Caenagnathus, from Alberta. Other relatives of Oviraptor were Chirostenotes and Elmisaurus"@en . . "Theropod"@en . "Jurassic Park 2: The Chaos Continues"@en . .

It was assumed that Oviraptor had been trying to eat the eggs when it died. Scientists later found that the eggs that it was thought Oviraptor had been stealing belonged to Oviraptor itself, additional evidence showing that the dinosaur had died protecting its young. Oviraptor may have also had no crest; this trait actually belonged to Citipati, a related species also from Mongolia. Evidence shows that Oviraptor was a carnivore or at least an omnivore (a fossil was found with a lizard in its stomach), although it was little or no threat to larger dinosaurs. It may have eaten shellfish and small animals, as the body of a young Velociraptor was found close to an Oviraptor nest. It was probably killed as food for the dinosaur's babies after it attempted to steal from the nest. There is strong evidence that Oviraptor and related dinosaurs had feathers."@en .
