    Types of Animals

    From biological classification perspective, animals belong to the kingdom called Animalia. They are
    eukaryotes, multi-cellular living organisms, locomotive heterotrophic, and reproduce sexually. Explore
    different types of animals in the animal kingdom here.

    Types of animals

    From the biological classification perspective, animals belong to the kingdom called Animalia. They are
    eukaryotes and multi-cellular living organisms. Animals are locomotive (i.e., ability to move around),
    heterotrophic (i.e., consume organic material as a source of food), and reproduce sexually (with the
    exceptions of asexual organisms). The study of animals is called Zoology.

    Here are the different types of animals in the animal kingdom:

    Types of Animals

    types of mammals

    Mammals

    Mammals are vertebrates within the class Mammalia which have a neocortex (i.e., higher brain
    functions), hair, three middle ear bones, and mammary glands. Explore different types of mammals in
    the animal kingdom and their characteristics.

    birds

    Birds

    Birds are a collection of warm-blooded vertebrates within the class Aves, identified by feathers,
    toothless, beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a four-chambered heart, and a well-built yet
    lightweight skeleton system. Explore different types of birds in the animal kingdom and their properties
    here.

    Reptiles

    Reptiles

    Reptiles are four-limbed (aka tetrapod) animals within the class Reptilia. Discover different types of
    reptiles in the animal kingdom and their characteristics here.
    Amphibians

    Amphibians

    Amphibians are cold-blooded, four-limbed vertebrates within the class Amphibia. Explore different types
    of amphibians, their habitats/ecosystems, diets, evolution, and characteristics here.

    Fishes

    Fishes

    Fishes are the aquatic animals within the class Anatidae that do not have limbs with digits. Identify
    different types of fishes, their habitats, diets, predators, fun-facts, and characteristics here.

    Insects

    Insects

    Insects are the largest group of six-limbed (aka hexapod) invertebrates within the class Insecta. Explore
    the world of insects here.

    Crustaceans

    Crustaceans

    Crustaceans are a large, diverse group of arthropods (i.e., segmented body with jointed-limbs) within
    the class Crustacea. Explore the universe of crustaceans here.

    Echinoderms
    Echiniderms

    Echinoderms are marine animals classified under the class Echinodermata. All echinoderms in adult form
    contain radial symmetry (e.g., sea stars). Discover different types of echinoderms and their
    characteristics here.

    thousand species of mollusks are recognized & properly classified. Learn more about them here.
