Find a Fossil
Fossils are the remains of living things and can be found in rocks, such as limestone and sandstone. Collecting fossils in Ohio is a fun way to learn about plants and animals that lived long before dinosaurs roamed the earth. Check out these additional resources for more information on Ohio fossils.
- If you do not live in an area where fossils are abundant, try looking for fossils in driveway gravel or in rocks along a nearby stream.
- Search your gravel driveway after it rains when dust is washed from the rocks.
- Fossils are usually shinier or duller than rocks and often have different colors, textures, and shapes.
- Closely examine rocks for fossils by getting near the ground or using a magnifying glass.
