About Gigantoraptor

A colossal oviraptorosaur, dozens of times heavier than its closest known relatives. It stood around 5 meters tall and likely carried feathers like its smaller kin, ranking among the largest feathered animals if so. Known from only a few Gobi region skeletons. Its relatives brooded nests like birds.
