The most notable feature of the Oviraptor is its skull, which is short and deep, with a rounded crest at the top. The CollectA Oviraptor figure accurately portrays these features, capturing the unique skull shape and crest with precision. The body proportions, including the long tail and slender limbs, are also depicted in accordance with scientific understanding of Oviraptor anatomy.
The CollectA Oviraptor measures 3.5" L x 2" H
Oviraptor had a heavy toothless beak designed for crushing food and a pair of incisors on its palate.
Oviraptor, meaning "egg thief," is a genus of theropod dinosaur known for its distinctive appearance and intriguing behavior.
One of the most fascinating aspects of Oviraptor is its association with eggs. The first fossils of Oviraptor were discovered in close proximity to a nest of dinosaur eggs, leading scientists to initially believe that Oviraptor was a nest raider, hence its name. However, further research has suggested that Oviraptor may have been protecting its own nest or even brooding its own eggs. This figure does not depict Oviraptor with eggs, but it sparks curiosity about the species' reproductive behavior and evolutionary adaptations.
