No Bones on Mars according to Curiosity Rover images

NASA’s Curiosity Mars Rover spotted femur thigh bone-like rock on the surface of Red Planet on Sol 725. Rover used its Mastcam imaging instrument to capture this rock formation. From the whole scene we can see that the rover drove through this area and then photographed the result. NASA’s scientists declare that this shape could be formed by erosion, either wind or water. Red Planet seem to never had enough oxygen in its atmosphere and elsewhere to support more complex organisms.
