Are crocodiles considered alligators?
No. Crocodiles and alligators are both of the order Crocodilia (as are caimans and gharials), but they separate when you get down to superfamily and family, and there are very distinct differences between the two which makes them unique.

How are alligators different from a crocodile?
Crocodiles and Alligators have distinct evolutionary histories for starters. Both are members of an a group of crocodylomorphs that radiated from archosaurs (that group includes dinosaurs and therefore birds) in the Triassic and are both are part of the order Crocodylia that began in the Cretaceous. Crocodiles first evolved ~60mya and Alligators evolved some 20my later. Another living group, the Gavials emerged in the Cretaceous- older than either crocs or alligators. As for telling the animals apart visually today, Gavials are pretty distinct with the narrow jaws and are almost exclusively piscivorous. The best way to distinguish a croc is to note protruding teeth from the lower jaw outside of the mouth. Crocs will have one or a few teeth poing out from the lower jaw, upwardly and alligators tend to have a bigger upper jaw and will not have lower teeth protruding. There are other differences as well that are not visibly discernable. I think alligators are interesting for having a respiratory system that is unidirectional. This is a trait dinosaurs and birds have that is very advanced and allows for fresh air to fill the lungs at both the inspiration and expiration stages of breathing as opposed to only at inspiration as in our "dead-end" lungs.
Are crocodiles larger than alligators?
alligators are larger than crocodiles, but crocodiles are more aggressive. when it comes to crocodilians, the smaller, the more aggressive. take Caimans, for example, they are the most aggressive crocodilians.i personally think that they are seriously misunderstood animals; alligators are known for attacking people for no reason, but they often only attack the people who run from them. their brains are triggered by motion; if they see something traveling fast that is near them, they attack, but otherwise, they wont attack. the people attacked from alligators are the ones who are being stupid and are teasing them.oh, by the way, did you know that crocodilians are the last remaining Archosaurs? Archosaur is the name for the animals like Mesozoic marine reptiles, pterosaurs, and dinosaurs.@first answer- People come here for correct information >:l Anyone who knows their reptiles obviously knows crocodiles are the larger of the two species.
What was around longer birds or dinosaurs?
Both. If you think about it, birds evolved from dinosaurs, and some think birds are the only living dinosaurs left.
