Behemoth-Dinosaur?

Was the "Behemoth" in the book of Job a reference to a dinosaur? Some believe the worldwide dragon stories are really about dinosaurs who once roamed the earth. For a Creationist it makes sense-for dinosaurs too may have been brought onto the ark and survived the flood only to be eventually hunted to extinction (as other animals in more recent times have been).


Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. Job 40:15-18
