Citipati (SciiFii)

Citipati communis is a species of non-avian oviraptorid dinosaur that originally lived in Asia during the Late Cretaceous period, about 75 million to 71 million years ago, as an extinct species, Citipati osmolskae, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. Citipati communis is a medium-sized animal, with an average length of around 9.5 feet (2.9 meters) in length and weigh about 75–83 kg (165–183 lb). Like most other oviraptorids, it is a herbivore that primarily feeds on fruits, nuts, seeds, leaves, pine needles, cycads, ferns, and horsetails. Citipati communis is a social dinosaur that lives in flocks of up to about 25 at a time, and during the breeding seasons, the males' wings turn bright red and the males use them to intimidate rival males and to attract the females. In just 2-3 months after mating, the female Citipati communis lays around 22 eggs at a time, which hatch around 2 months later and the young are cared for by their mothers until they are subadults about 5 months later. Citipati communis is a common animal in farms and petting zoos throughout the world, due to many people requesting and commissioning this species to be sold as guard animals to protect chickens, ducks, etc, as well as one of many available animals to pet and feed in the petting zoos.
