Best Answer

Fossils are formed from millions of years ago when sometime during the extinction of the dinosaurs, their skeletons get caught in rocks during Earth's process of Erosion. Fossils of other prehistoric creatures, like the Sea Monsters, were fossilized earlier before and/or after the K-1 Event.

The fossils fuels were created by the death of animals and plants who through the ages and heat/pressure from years in the earth became oil, gas, and coal. That is why they are called "fossil" fuels.
