[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't commented in 50-100 pages, but I am here agree with the PP upthread who said the dog dying of something else doesn't preclude heatstroke for the humans. In fact, that was a leading theory for a while-- that the dog was sick or injured and trying to lug him back slowed them down/kept them out long enough to cause heatstroke in the rest of them (baby having no real agency).

I can't remember if we'd confirmed dog was tethered to the people, but if so, that might imply the dog was not yet dead, but dying of [whatever he died of] as they began to die of heatstroke partly as a result of carrying/dragging/attending to him.

I'm actually not a big buyer of the heatstroke theory, but I don't think it's been definitively ruled out yet.  [/quote]

I prefer reading.  Do you know if they found other deceased animals in the forest area that also endured the extreme heat and used the same water source.  I’m thinking birds, ducks, deer, coyote, large cats and other species living in the wild.  I’m not exactly sure what species would be in the immediate area.  
Did the family picnic on the trail?  A lot of times people share food with their dog I wonder if they had rotten food.  [/quote]
