 Can someone please  explain to me why it would be so tragic if a sauropod
was put off balance and fell ?
   I do realise that some times a fall can break bones ,or even  kill,
depending  on the circumstances ,but it seems to be implied that if they
fall,they die.
 I know I'm treading a thin line here ,but, these animals weren't created
,they evolved. with all the trails and tribulations ,which surely includes
being able to take a fall even when they are blown over by the wind.
   I mean no disrespect  -  just curious
