Dinosaur movies

Van loves watching 'scary' dinosaur movies. That means those dinosaur documentaries, where they talk about fossils but have clips of dinosaurs throughout. He gets bored with the parts of people talking, he'll say, "more dinosaurs, less people."
But he has picked up some words and topics that result in interesting questions.

On fossils

"Momma, why do dinosaurs turn into fossils? Why do they do that."

On Echoes

Van: "Momma, tell me a story about when you was little and an echo was chasing you"
Me: "Van an echo isn't an animal, it's just a sound. It's like if you say, 'HELLO' and you hear 'Hello... hello...hello'" So an echo is when you say something and hear the same thing you said reflected back at you."
Van: 'Momma, tell me a story about when you was little and an echo was biting you."

oh well.

or

"momma, where do echos live? what do they eat?"
