But you can say that about many mammals that are close to extinction now, we rarely find their bones, and if we do it's because we know about them and their habitat. We know nothing about hf. other than through the accidental discovery of their bones.
If they're like us, a marginally intelligent tool using ape, and still exist, it's entirely possibly that they bury their dead, and we'll never find bones.

- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI'm pretty sure that burnt remains have been found also, but I was just responding to the idea that we weren't finding any evidence of their existence because they buried their dead.
