finding complete remains of a once living organism is rare because of how the plates move, and, erosion. also, when the plates shift due to earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc. this will further spread apart the plates, or move them together, thus making the skeletal remains more like skeletal fragments spread out over a great distance.

I hope this answers your question.
