    I have thought this myself for a long time, although I think (personal opinion) they were warmer blooded than us, similar to birds. Just a feeling and I can't prove or disprove it.

    I dunno. I checked a certain website and it seems that elephants and whales (animals similar in size to sauropods) have temperatures equal or even a little bit lower than we do. But of course, as you say, they were more related to birds so, who knows?

    What I do think is that they were warm blooded and possibly more active than we imagine them. Just like u said, its just a feeling that I can´t prove or disprove.
