Fossils can appear heavier than the original animal due to the process of mineralization, where minerals from the surrounding sediment infiltrate the organic remains over time. This process replaces the original organic material with denser minerals, such as silica or calcite, leading to a heavier structure. Additionally, the weight can also be influenced by the sedimentary rock in which the fossil is embedded, which adds to its overall mass.
Some examples of non examples of fossils are as follows: knobby rocks, beautiful stones, bones. All fossils are rocks, and if bone fossils are found they will be much heavier than normal bone.
Animal behavior would be the least likely to be learned by studying animal fossils, as behavior is not typically preserved in the fossil record. Fossils generally provide information about the anatomy, physiology, and ecological relationships of ancient organisms rather than their specific behaviors.
Part or all the organic material has been replaced by "rock".
A coprolite is fossilized animal dung. Coprolites are classified as trace fossils as opposed to body fossils, as they give evidence for the animal's behaviour (in this case, diet) rather than morphology.
They are much denser. it's the same with stars and neutron stars. Neutron stars are many times smaller than the original star but much heavier because they are so denser
Well, the tracks are examples of trace fossils. Trace fossils are not fossils in the traditional sense. Instead, they are fossils of something other than the animal or plant's form, like a animal track or burrow, that tells us an animal has been there.

yes there are more teeth fossils than skin fossils
it is the whale shark it is longer than 9 school buses and heavier than 10 elephants
Because Paleozoic era rock is much older than Mesozoic era rock, these strata are generally at greater depth than Mesozoic rock, thus limiting their accessibility to areas that have been exposed by weathering and erosion.
Fossils have layer upon layer of hardened tissue. Therefore they are quite rough in texture where the insides are more malleable. Depending on what the fossil is of some fossils give off a sour aroma. Most of the time animal fossils deteriate at a faster rate than fossils of humans or shells. Fossils are a unique study and I you study them further.

This fridge is much heavier than the microwave.I am heavier than a mouse.etc.
