The document outlines a programming project focused on defining a package called 'zoo' that includes interfaces, abstract classes, and concrete classes representing different animals. It specifies the creation of an interface for nameable attributes, methods for running and flying, and an abstract class called 'animal' with relevant properties and a static instance counter. The project also describes user interaction through a menu to query information about the different animal types created from subclasses like dog, cat, flycat, and dragon.
