Choose one of the four sections to begin learning about the many things
fossils can teach us.
Past Lives:
Using fossils, we can learn about the age, behavior, and features of extinct
organisms and how they evolved.
Paleoecology:
Fossils help us to learn about how ancient organisms interacted with their
environments and with one another.
Biodiversity:
Using fossils, we can learn about past biodiversity and extinctions, and apply
that knowledge to events affecting biodiversity today.
Geologic
Time:
Fossils help us to date layers of rock and also provide evidence for geologic
events during Earth's history.
