Actually I'm pretty sure they filmed the scene where the cause was 
discovered, but it was cut for some reason. I especially remember 
seeing a shot of Tim and Ellie looking at some expended gastroliths 
in a promo magazine.

Useless bit of probably well-known JP trivia: That vet in the 
Triceratops scene was Gerry Harding, father of (in the novels at 
least) TLW's Sarah Harding, AKA The World's Most Unproffesional 
Paleontologist/Animal Behaviorist.
