In the ground. Or they bred with other clans. The Uchiha were the only ones that inbred.

Bred with other clan so that there would not be a dominant clan is my theory. Its seems like in one generation they just disappeared.

wouldn't be surprised if madara did something about it. I mean the uchiha were still around, only a massacre wiped them out. perhaps the same happened to senju?

Dead? Not a chance.kishi wouldn't have killed off the strongest Clan in the series off panel.Furthermore, what clan or even village could have been strong enough to accomplish such a feat?

Breeding with other clan is possible, but would that make a bunch of over powering clans.

They bred with other clans like the Uzumaki clan and it happened from there. They still exist though Tsunade is a Senju.

They never actually had a KG so they didn't get all caught up into the preservation of the clan idea

Look the Senju fought as the front line troops of the Village,what do you think with 3 world Wars happen to a clan? Manny die and lees children are born and people leave the clan for their own reasons. In the end you end up with just Tsunade.

Seeing as they didn't have a distinguishing unique trait they were trying to protect like they hyuugas byakugan or the uchihas sharingan they probably mingled with the other clans. That said that doesn't really account for there not being a single remaining senju ( by name ). Perhaps the name of the clan caused social problems within the village so it was abandoned.

Where in the manga does it state the senju fought as the front line troops of the village?Your theory isn't supported by the manga.The entire village system was created by Tobirama, who created academy system to teach and train shinobis.With so many clans in the village, do you actually believe only the Senju Clan members went to the academy, became shinobi, and then fought in all three great shinobi wars on the front line?You can't be serious.We no little of the great shinobi wars but what little we do know, from non-senju Minato being the most famous in the village before becoming hokage and two non-senjus in Orochimaru and Jiraiya being among the strongest in the village is that the Senju Clan was definitely not the only ones fighting on the front lines.

they were probably sent to defend the uzumakis but were wiped out in the process

Same place they place the Uchiha as internal police force, the Uchiha protected the Village from internal enemies as the police,the Senju protected the village from external enemies so logical if one Clan protects one are the other protect the other or are you going to say majority of the Men went Gay or they the men became sterile over time? War kills, mains and destroys people I know I have seen it up front and personal I wasn't home safe in bed like so many people I was a Soldier.

The war theory is the most plausible, everything else would have raised rather high suspicions.

The whole "inter-breeding" sounds really vague, especially because Senju is maybe the most honored clan name in Konoha, surely most couples would have used this as family name if they were relatives of Hasirama.

Leaves a disease, sterility or a Senju massacre, non of which sounds rather convincing for me.

Maybe we get a (good) explanation one day (before the manga ends^^), but I am not that convinced right now. Mainly because the whole timeline is pretty botched up already. And we still don't know how the strongest Hokage ever died, when even Madara & the Kyuubi together couldn't kill him.
