Ichnofossils (Trace Fossils)
Ichinofossils (also known as trace fossils) are, quite simply, geological records of biological activity. These fossils allow us to get a glimpse into the past behavior of a particular prehistoric animal. The study of these kinds of fossils is called paleoichnology. Examples of ichinofossils include: burrows, borings, footprints, feeding marks, coprolites and stromatolites.

Trace Fossils
Trace fossils, or Ichnofossils as they are also called, are quite fascinating, even though they may just be a by product for many collectors, since they don't always look as pleasing as most well-preserved fossils. Of course dinosaur tracks are really something special, but I haven't found any of those yet.
