So, what you are saying is, given certain conditions, fossils happen today.
By far the majority of animals that die succumb to normal scavenger
principles. Example: there are no fossilized passenger pigeons of Bison
although they flourished in the 19th century. Certain conditions, such as
a flood, do produce fossils and those less ambulatory would fall first,
then the more ambulatory on higher grounds much like the 'evolutionary'
evidence for 'columns' that current textbooks picture.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own insight.. Pr. 3:5
