Fossil fuels were formed by the compression of dead plants and animals due to high pressure and temperature.
Some fossil fuels are coal, petroleum and natural gas

Fossil fuels are formed by organic remains that have been buried under rock. "Organic remains" can include animals and plants (think of oil and dinosaurs).
