Fossils are essentially the remains of numerous creatures that lived thousands or millions of years earlier. Once these animals died, they were buried in layers and layers of earth. While their flesh would rot away, the more challenging components of their body, such as coverings, bones, etc, would remain intact in between the layers of debris. Currently, all those years later, those bones and coverings can still be discovered, intact, as those layers of sediment are once again discovered.
