Oviraptor

Introducing Dinosaurs

by Susan H. Gray

Scientists who study dinosaurs often have to be good detectives. And like detectives, they sometimes come to the wrong conclusions. That's what happened when George Olson discovered the first Oviraptor fossil. Learn why Olson named the new dinosaur 'egg stealer' and how later scientists finally uncovered the truth about Oviraptor.

Great introduction to this important dinosaur. The way we keep finding dinosaurs is truly interesting; so many still left to be found out there. Whatever 'event' ended their reign changed the course of life on this planet; it would be very interesting to see how dinos would have developed if they had continued to evolve.
