An example of a fossil that consists of an entire organism is the mammoth, often found preserved in ice in regions like Siberia. These fossils provide vital information on the biology and environment of these ancient creatures. The cold temperatures in permafrost help slow down decay, leading to exceptional preservation of soft tissues.
