Most oil (like, 99% of it, IIRC) is from decayed plant matter, not animal matter.

While we're being pedantic about dinosaurs and children's cartoons (my favorite pasttime), Littlefoot and Spike would have lived like 90 million years apart from Cera.

But that'd make a lot of sense when you consider the fact that trees outnumber people like 380:1.

Its not actually, most of the oil was from plants that died before fungus and decaying bacteria evolved so the dead logs just sat there and would not decompose ever

Actually it's a common myth that fossil fuels are made up of Dinosaurs. They're mostly made up of Silesaurs and to small parts Pisanosaurs.
