In nature, when remains of animals or plants (or even remains of animals or plants) are preserved on the surface of rocks, in the ground or in other sediments over a long period of time, they are called fossils. By studying these remnants of the past, paleontologists can draw conclusions about what life on Earth was like, even before the human species existed.
