Paleontology
Definition of Paleontology as it relates to Science, Environmental Science, Conservation Biology
Paleontology, as part of Conservation Biology, focuses on the study of prehistoric life through the examination of plant and animal fossils. This field seeks to understand the evolutionary history of various species, their behaviors, and how they interacted with their environments. By studying fossil records, paleontologists can gain insights into how past organisms adapted to environmental changes, which can inform conservation efforts for modern species facing similar challenges. This connection to contemporary environmental issues makes paleontology a crucial component of the Science/Environmental Science/Conservation Biology hierarchy.
