How are dragonfly fossils formed?

Dragonfly fossils are formed through a process called fossilization, where a deceased dragonfly would typically be buried in sediment or mud. Over time, the soft tissues decompose, leaving behind hard parts such as exoskeletons or wings that can become fossilized. The surrounding sediment eventually hardens into rock, preserving the dragonfly remains as a fossil.
