Palaeontologists are scientists who study fossils to learn about life on Earth in the past. Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of organisms that lived millions of years ago. By examining these ancient remains, palaeontologists can understand how different species evolved, how they interacted with each other, and what the Earth’s environment was like long ago. Their work helps us understand the history of life and shows how living things have changed over time.
