Fossils return in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, naturally, but they come with a slight twist. Every day, dig up the fossils on your island and turn them into Blathers to evaluate. He’ll let you know if the fossils are new or missing from the museum exhibits, and you can choose to donate them to him. If you don’t want to dig up by yourself, you can buy all the fossil on AKRPG.COM.

When you first walk into the museum’s fossil section, you’ll notice a glowing circle on the ground. The circle has lines coming out of it that quickly branch out. In the first room, following the lines will lead to fossils of simple organisms like trilobites and ammonites. But if you keep following the lines, things will get a lot more interesting. The next room leads to dinosaurs. The line branches off before the dinos, though, to a pedestal showing a dimetrodon (a progenitor of non-mammalian creatures) and a juramaia (a progenitor of mammalian creatures).
