Fossil records are hard to interpret because no two fossils are the same. Fossils come in many different sizes, shapes, and qualities. Some fossils have many pieces missing, that makes it very hard for scientist to determine what the species was and what its ancestors were. And without the fossils being the same shape or size scientists may not be able to put together that the two species are similar or related. Also if a fossil is small it can be damaged making it hard to interpret.

When I was a kid we used to collect this kind of fossils it's because our house is just 250 meters away from the seashore.-fossils handbags
