In 1993 a nest found in
Mongolia contained a fossilized Oviraptor skeleton atop its
eggs, and was featured in the July 1996 NATIONAL
GEOGRAPHIC article Dinosaurs of the
Gobi. That amazing find was another in a long series of American
Museum of Natural History expeditions to the rich fossil-bearing sands of
Mongolia. Mark Norell, one of two paleontologists who led the team, feels
this stunning fossil provides great insight into dinosaur nesting
behavior.
