Rooter From the Original movie

'it's nobody's fault"

[Belmont2500]

We don't know with absolute certainty if it was really Rooter from whom Bron is supposed to have learned about the death of Littlefoot's mother. Others would have probably seen the fight as well or later on her body, but this is just another possibility while that of Rooter being the one also makes perfect sense.
Lonely as Littlefoot was one might wonder why he did not try to follow Rooter (who could have offered some protection), but one of the LBT books I have puts it like this (translated):

With slow steps Rooter walked away. There was no room in his life for a young dinosaur kid. Littlefoot understood that much immediately.

that's good, by the way where do you find these books,Malte?

"the great Circle of Life has begun"

That particular book dates back from my "original LBT enthusiasm" (I probably got it for my fifth or sixth birthday), but it is still offered at ebay sometimes where there are other LBT books being offered quite regularly as well. Like I said, I am not at my own place where the book is right now, but I can post the literal quote and translation of the passage once I am back.
I am quite sure that this passage same as some other interesting passages of the book are the personal interpretation of the author (I think her name is Karin J‰ckel), but her interpretations often make good sense.

@thebigdeal, is there any reason why you are posting Rooter quotes without anything else? We know what Rooter said, but what are you saying yourself?

hahahahaha!! I KNEW I'd get something out of that!

4 some reason I remembered 1 wrongly and thought the old guy was a longneck and might be little foot's longlost dad; in November of '08 I discovered he was a creepy mole creature and even if he does console Littlefoot he really creeps me out espicially when he first snaps at Littlefoot. Movie 1 I'm sorry isn't my favorite; 2, 3 and 4 were all better, in my opinion, cause I first saw a sequel and 1 wasn't like what I'd originally seen LBT as. 1 was overly depressing.

I do like some of the other bit-time characters though, like Elsie and and Sue and Archie.
