Bones, shells, feathers, and leaves are the only things that can become a fossil. This is not true; fossils can be created from any remains or traces of past organisms preserved by nature, such as footprints and burrows. Fossils can also be very large or microscopically small, and they generally take at least 10,000 years to be created.
