PRE-HISTORIC TLC

An 80-million-year-old fossil of a bird sitting on a nest of up to 22 eggs found in Ukhaa Tolgod in Mongolia indicates for the first time that pre-historic animals cared for their young. Called an Oviraptor, the meat-eating biped resembled a small ostrich with a tail. The discovery is also the first clear link of dinosaurs to the evolution of modern birds.
