Why do some dead animals not become fossils?
The vast majority of dead animals are not fossilised. For something to become a fossil it has to die under very special circumstances. If an animal living in a forest dies it will quickly be absorbed by the other life around it, insects, fungi, bacteria all play their part in recycling the energy provided by the dead animal. The same happens on the plains and under the seas, though the organisms doing the recycling will be different.
