Are crocodiles considered alligators

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Yes crocodiles are longer, but when it comes to fatness and muscle the alligator overrules.

Answer 3

no but they are both reptiles and in the same family I think,but a different species altogether, like lions and tigers both being big cats but not the same kind

Answer 4

yes crocodiles do usually have longer tails then alligators because crocodiles have 2345 more small bones in their bodies
