Sauropod Dinosaur Egg:

This 70 million year old fossilized dinosaur egg was recovered from the Gobi Desert and was one of about 300 brought to the United States from China before the Chinese government implemented an export band on them. The protrusion on the left side of the egg is a clump of sandstone from the desert floor containing imprints left from adjacent eggs in the nest. About 60% of the shell is intact.

Sauropods were enormous herbivores which probably browsed through forests and moved to new feeding grounds in herds, the adult protecting the young. Its sheer mass must have deterred most predators, but it could also lash out with its long tail and slash with the large curved claw on each elephantine foot. It may have even reared up and crushed attackers with its massive legs.
