Fossil in Amber
FOSSILS ! comes from latin word Fossus which means "having been dug up". Anything that was once a living organism from a past geologic time is considered a fossil.
Fossils. Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of organisms found in rocks or other geological formations. They provide valuable information about past life forms and environments.
In theory, any kind of fossil can be preserved in ice, but among prehistoric animals, the most commonly found preserved in ice are mammoths and mastodons. We know exactly what a woolly mammoth looked like because entire specimens, hair and all, have been found frozen (the details of hair or skin most dinosaurs are depicted with is basically guesswork).
Preserved remains are formed when the body of an organism is preserved and protected from decay through freezing, being trapped in tar, sap from a tree hardens around the body, or the body is put in a bog. (Like a peat bog.)
Fossils are the main traces of ancient organisms preserved in rock. These can include bones, shells, footprints, and plant remains. Additionally, organic molecules such as DNA and proteins have been found in some well-preserved fossils.

Fossilized insects preserved in amber are actually quite rare. Insects preserved in amber are most often found near river beds and wooded areas.

The tree sap is called "resin" and if it is fossilised it is called "amber".
Troodon is extinct and has no skin impressions preserved. For most prehistoric animals colour is currently unknown. However, there two studies have recently found preserved Melanosomein the feathers of Sinosaurepteryx and Anchiornis and have been able to decipher their colours.
Fossils are the preserved remains or impressions of living organisms that lived in the past. They can be found in rocks or sediments and provide important information about the history of life on Earth.
The animal you're referring to is likely the "mammoth." Mammoths, particularly the woolly mammoth, are often found preserved in ice or permafrost, providing valuable insights into prehistoric life. These large, hairy relatives of modern elephants roamed the Earth during the Pleistocene epoch and are well-known for their impressive size and long tusks. Their remains have been discovered in various locations, particularly in Siberia and Alaska.
