Description
A really big mistake of palentology!!!The poor Oviraptor philoceratops ( his name means "egg thief" and "lover of ceratopsians" ) was named this way because of the first fossil beeing found over a nest that was supposed to be filled with protoceratops eggs... recently they discovered it was just a mother protecting her eggs from a sandstorm!
This gave me this silly idea of the Police Dept. in Mongolia, in late Cretaceous.
"This is the history of the Hurricane, the man the authorities came to blame... for something that he never done..."
Man... I may have broken something inside my head this easter... or maybe it's the clown flu! heheh sorry for the silly jokes

That Oviraptor is like "What did I do?" and the Megalania is like "I love eggs!"

I think that monitor is representative of something like Estesia, which was a contemporary of Oviraptor.

Poor oviraptor, i feel bad for her. I think the responsible is monitor lizard, note the yellow liquid dangling from his mouth.

Poor thing dies, sacrificing her life to protect her kids, but even her kids die, because, well, dang that sandstorm.
Has her entire species named after how she was misinterpret as stealing eggs.
Tragic.

I love the mammal's expression; like somebody who's already been to jail and isn't afraid of it anymore.
And, I feel sorry for the Oviraptor; the raptor cop seems like he's into police brutality.

Protoceratops-mom: "There he is, officer!"
Oviraptor: "But I was just hatching my eggs!" TT_TT
Mammal: *doesn't give a damn*
Reptile: "Nomnomnom...yum, delicious!"

It's the oviraptor's fault because they are egg thieves but sometimes not that theives.

Ya know the more I look at it the more I expect that oviraptor to shout "narf"

Yeah, Oviraptor was just a loving parent. Have some pity on him and give him a cookie.

Ironically it was possible the ceratopsian was stealing the theropod's eggs and crushed the parent's head in the process

Funny how I grew up with this myth, and how it was cleared early in my childhood. I've even seen the same pic of an egg-eating Oviraptor get replaced with a fern in its mouth tending its eggs.
Hehe, mistakes were made and they always shall be made...

So many good jokes about the short arms would be washed away...

Well, it's a particular subject I am interested in. The funny thing is, I must have seen it before, as I've had you on my watch list for a while, but it just zipped over my head! Hopefully I got you and your work some attention.

Oviraptor gets blamed even though the lizard has egg in it's mouth.
