Trace fossils refer to evidence of ancient life that is not the actual remains of an organism, such as footprints, burrows, and coprolites (fossilized feces). Body fossils, on the other hand, are the actual remains of an organism, such as bones, teeth, and shells. Both types of fossils can provide important information about ancient life and the environments in which they lived.
