Interesting article link. They think she may have died while brooding. Here is the release.

Re: Brooding Dinosaur Fossil
This is super cool! i was talking with DH the other day when it was sunny and gorgeous and we were trying to get sunburnt sitting outside, i looked at the solar panel thing we have and asked him "could you imagine a chicken that size walking around!" How cool would that be LOL. he looked at me funny. This article is interesting to me that really things back then weren't apparently so different.....brooding happened, parents cared about the eggs....behaviour hasn't changed that much it seems!
