If BF is an omnivore like some claim, it's a wonder none have ever been shot while raiding a property or a body found if such did occur. [Both gardens / orchards and assorted livestock would be an increased temptation.]
Perhaps death instantly disrupts whatever random statistical fluctuation (a la Boltzmann Brains, etc) brought a hungry BF into existence. Not that their duration as a spontaneous embodied possibility would have been very long anyway. Their elusiveness in other contexts does not suggest that there are clans of them hanging out in the wilderness for weeks or months on end, eluding the demands of a need-to-be-balanced energy account eventually reclaiming them.
If they were accidental time or parallel universe travelers in the vein of falling into some anomaly reminiscent of those in the show
Primeval, then they would be more permanent guests as well as gunshot corpses available.
And of course, the spontaneous / temporary emergence of BFs would not deny them coming equipped with "preordained conditions" any less than a Boltzmann Brain would by definition possess a functional organization, past history in its memory, and some innate or logically prior tendencies.
