Is the Crocodile really a descendant of the dinosaur?
Crocodilians are distantly related to the dinosaurs in that they are both Archosaurs, but the former definitely are not descended from the Dinosaurs. They are both members of what is known as a ''crown group'' (the Archosauria). This refers back to a long-extinct bevy of Reptiles that includes the common ancestor of the two living archosaurs -- crocodilians and birds -- and the extinct avian and non-avian dinosaurs. In short, they are related only in that they (crocodilians and dinosaurs) both evolved from the same ancestral reptile.
