Circumstances of Disappearance​

On Saturday September 17, 1966, Diane Prevost disappeared while the Prevost family was camping at Grundy Provincial Park. Diane was playing on the beach, and would not go near the lake, as she was afraid of the water. Diane wanted to return to the trailer at the campsite, which was about 500 feet from the beach. Her father indicated he would take her back, but when he turned to do so, she was no longer on the beach. The family began to look for her immediately, and after an hour contacted the police for assistance. Despite an extensive search of the park and the lake, Diane was not found and has not been seen since.

I think she probably wandered off and got lost in the woods, possibly crawled into a small space and was never found...
Another possibility, and I know it's a bit of a long shot, is that she wandered off and was caught by a large bird of prey or other predator, like a bobcat... Two-year-olds are small, and I've seen videos of large birds able to swoop through trees and silently snatch prey...
I think it's more likely that she fell into the lake or got lost in the woods, but the animal predator theory would explain the disappearance of the body...
whatever it is
Rest in peace, little Diane
