Evidence of an organism’s activities is the type of information that is recorded in a trace fossil.

Trace fossils are geological records that indicate the activities and behaviors of past organisms. Trace fossils records information about the activities of animals, how they behaved as well as what they ate. Trace fossils can be classified into three main groups which are; tracks and trails, gastroliths and coprolites, and burrows and borings.
