It seems that the animals scaled this hill together, died, and were burried in a common grave. One could expect to find predators and prey burried alongside eachother on this lonely hill if the animals were attempting to escape rising flood waters.

This has happened a lot and still happens today, it is caused by carbon dioxide poisoning. A volcanic fissure gives off gas(which is odorless and colorless) which collects in a depression. Along comes an animal which tries to feed on the grasses that grow in the carbon dioxide rather well. It passes out and dies do to lack of oxygen. Now we have a dead body in the middle of this deadly gas (which also helps preserve the body), and along comes a predator whom having seen this fresh plump meal settles in to eat it and it too is overcome by the gas and dies and this cycle continues, etc, etc. Very simple and elegant way to get all the fossil in one place and proven to happen.
I think you should try to find better examples.
