Why We Don't Find Dinosaur Bone Everywhere

Dinosaur bones aren't found everywhere because fossilization is a rare process that requires specific conditions. Most bones decay before they can fossilize, and only a tiny fraction are preserved in sedimentary rock. Erosion, natural disasters, and human activity can also destroy fossils before they're discovered. Plus, many fossils are buried deep underground, making them hard to find.
