  1. oviraptorid

    Oviraptorid refers to a group of bird-like, bipedal dinosaurs characterized by having short snouts and toothless jaws, and are part of the larger Theropod family. They are believed to have existed during the late Cretaceous period primarily in what is now Asia. The name 'Oviraptorid' means 'egg thief' in Latin, initially due to the mistaken belief that they stole and ate other dinosaurs' eggs, but many paleontologists now believe that they were wrongly accused and actually were caring for their own eggs.
