It could have died from a number of things. It is thought that the ligaments on the back of the neck are stronger than the ones on the front of the neck. The ligaments on the front of the neck decay faster which causes the stronger ligaments on the back of the neck to contort the skeleton by pulling the neck back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-5413233046078838282010-10-07T15:23:39.758+13:002010-10-07T15:23:39.758+13:00Palaeontologists are more interested in what anima...Palaeontologists are more interested in what animals did when that were alive that how they died from my understanding. Their hypothesis only applies to certain fossils anyway, for example, the picture of the fossil in my post CLEARLY didn't die from drowning, or if it did, its neck didn't move into that position by itself.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817974804323066290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7498388463767378455.post-12801583778365049492010-10-07T15:13:40.719+13:002010-10-07T15:13:40.719+13:00Prehistoric autopsies?

The rest is about some paleontologist's observations that clash with the observations of whoever Weber 1980 is.
