I think it is because animals died then mud piled on top the another layer of animals and so on.
Coal is deposited usually in layers, underground, sometimes fairly close to the surface.
in rock layers what is found at the bottom
Normally, the oldest rocks are found at the bottom of the layers, being the first of the sediments that were deposited.
Because all the minerals piled on top of it and pressed down on it so they all squish on top on it
Yes, they are called coal seams.

coal
By digging big holes (called coal mines) in the ground and separating the coal, rock, and soil in the material dug from those holes. Coal usually comes in layers (called seams) between layers of other sedimentary rocks.

Sedimentary rock. It forms when layers of sediment pile up.

Coal can be found on the surface in areas in which the overlying strata have eroded. Coal layers can be exposed in road cuts and on the walls of river valleys. Coal can also be discovered by drilling core samples down from the surface.
because they are sedimentary rock
Coal can be found underground in coal mines, usually in coal seams or coal beds. These deposits are typically found in regions with former swamps and wetlands where plant material accumulated and was eventually buried and transformed into coal over millions of years.
it is a sedimentary rock which means it has been transformed from a different type of rock over millions of years :)
