   Also, I forgot to mention in my other post, don't forget smell - it's   
   fantastically more important to most animals than to us.   
      
   When the sea receded it would have changed the environment, so far as   
   smell was concerned, in the same way that having a brass band start   
   playing outside your window would for a human.  No wonder many animals   
   fled at _that_ point.   
      
   Many humans, of course, wandered down to the exposed ground to have a look :-(
