EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating world of Oviraptor dinosaurs. In this computer artwork, we witness a pair of Oviraptors on the verge of indulging in a feast of eggs from a Protoceratops nest. The vigilant parent stands guard at the upper center, ensuring the safety of its precious clutch. Oviraptor, a small bird-like dinosaur that once roamed what is now China millions of years ago, comes to life through this image. With its omnivorous nature, it is believed that Oviraptor had an eclectic diet consisting of plants, seeds, and even other animals' eggs. Its relatively large brain suggests intelligence and agility in its movements. The late Cretaceous period setting adds to the allure as we delve into prehistoric times when these magnificent creatures thrived. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into their hunting behavior and survival instincts as carnivores or omnivores. With stunning attention to detail and vibrant colors, Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of Earth's rich history and diverse inhabitants throughout different eras.
