and?
So, what happened? A bear? Hypothermia? Foul play? Natural causes?
In the absence of something obvious like evidence of mauling by a bear or a gunshot wound, its too soon for the cause of death to have been determined. You can’t just look at a corpse and say whether the person had a heart attack or died of exposure etc.
