Fossils are literally the remains of different animals that lived thousands or countless years ago. When these creatures died, they were buried in layers and also layers of earth. While their flesh would certainly rot away, the more challenging components of their body, such as shells, bones, etc, would certainly remain intact between the layers of sediment. Now, all those years later, those bones and also shells can still be located, undamaged, as those layers of sediment are again unearthed.
