It was an early misunderstanding of tar pit and peat bog excavations as I understand it.
Schools should teach about the bone wars and how they set back set back research by hundreds of years and created dinosaur myths that persist to this day.
I think it’s just that there’s many orders of magnitude more plankton than anything else, so the dinos might still have ended up as oil, just a negligible fraction (though this is a complete guess by me)
Wait, has school been lying ALL This time? What actually happens to bones?
Mostly they disintegrate. Some become fossils depending on how they died and the conditions surrounding their body.
No, they just haven’t been clarifying.

That sounds so bad ass. The bone wars, I would pay extra attention to that.
Sounds like a full-length porno film to me.
