ANIMAL CLASSFICATION!!!!

Today we learned about how animals are classsified into groups. Animals are either vetrerbrates (which means they have a spine) or inveterbrates (which don't have a spine)

Inveterbrates are animals like jellyfish, crabs, insects and octupus

Verterbrates are put into five groups. They are mammals, birds, reptiles, fish and amphibians Mammals have fur or hair  ang give birth  to live young . birds have feathers and lay hard eggs. rerptiles are cold blooded and lay soft eggs . amphbians breath through their skin and need to keep their skin moist. fish breath through gills and have fins.

5 examples of each type

MAMMALS: Tiger, Cow, Bull, Spider Monkey, Pig

BIRDS: Trumpeter, Puffin, Crane, Frog mouth, Bee-Eater

REPTILES: Crocodile, Turtle, Tuatara, Lizard, Komodo dragon

AMPHIBIANS: Frog, Salamander, Caecilian, Toads, Newts.

FISH: Guppy, Goldfish, Zander, Shark, Megalodon
