Answer: As vertebrate animals, birds are ultimately related to all the other vertebrate animals that live or ever have lived on earth. But you may be surprised to learn that the family of vertebrates to which modern birds are most closely related is the crocodiles , which evolved, like dinosaurs, from a population of archosaur reptiles during the late Triassic period.
