Why don't organisms have complete fossil records?

Fossil records are incomplete because there are many random, destructive processes which can harm or destroy fossils.

Some scavenger could chew on them. A large animal could step on them. It doesn't necessarily take an earthquake to damage a fossil. Fossils are just lying around, they are not protected or conserved, unless some paleontologist digs them up and puts them in a museum.
