_       Fossils can be found all over the planet. The thing that we find weird is that scientists have found plants that need warm weather in places like Antartica. How is this so? How do plants like this end up in places that are below freezing? There are many reasons for this. What do you think happened? 
     One of the main reasons for this is the fact that millions of years ago all of the cintinents were all together in one huge super-continent. This super-continent is called Pangea. The way that Pangea fits in here is that when Pangea was around plants and animals were all over and when Pangea broke up the plants and animals sometimes also go broken up- this is why we find the same fossil on different continents. When the contents were moving they went through some weather changes, and that is why we have warm- weather fossils in Antartica.
