Best Answer

Crocodiles and other reptiles are not dinosaurs. The family of reptiles separated from the animals that became dinosaurs several hundred million years ago and existed from that time, through the age of dinosaurs to the present. Dinosaurs evolved becoming warm blooded and to some extent covered with feathers. Reptiles remained cold blooded and scaly. The only living descendants of dinosaurs today are the birds.

Crocodiles are, however more closely related to dinosaurs (and birds) than they are to most other reptiles, being members of the Archosauria.
