Fossils are actually the remains of various creatures that lived thousands or millions of years back. When these animals died, they were buried in layers and layers of earth. While their flesh would certainly rot away, the harder parts of their body, such as coverings, bones, etc, would stay undamaged in between the layers of sediment. Currently, all those years later on, those bones and shells can still be discovered, intact, as those layers of sediment are once more uncovered.
