Study of fossils is important because it helps us gain knowledge about the species that lived on the planet Earth when human beings had not set foot on it.

Wings, feathers, skeletons, bones or tails - all lead us to a new discovery of the animal.

It explains evolutionary developments, variations, climatic changes, over-reproduction, competition as well as survival.

The catastrophes and traits of the organisms are examined thoroughly based on the geological conditions of the fossils.
