This document discusses animal classification and how animals are organized into groups from the broadest category of kingdom to more specific categories such as class and species based on shared characteristics. It provides examples of the five main classes of vertebrates - mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish - and discusses some key attributes and examples of animals that fall within each class.
The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean, located in western Europe. It occupies 1/3 of the Earth's surface. Some important animals in the Pacific Ocean include dolphins, sharks, swordfish, and grey whales. The grey whale is a 13 meter mammal that eats small fish. Sharks have fins and sharp teeth and eat fish and sometimes humans. Swordfish are large predatory fish with long bills. Dolphins live in water and have fins, eating small fish and seaweed.
Not all animals are dangerous, but there are few animals that can be quite lethal when they attack. If you take elephant, it’s generally a non aggressive animal, but when it gets fierce, it can be quite catastrophic.
This presentation gives the clear details on the Mammals. Information on all type of Mammals are included.
Fast and quick facts are also included. The pictures are neatly depicted by which one can understand easily.
Gestation period of Mammals are depicted in an order. Some rarely observed Mammals are shown in the initial slides.
Parents and Teachers find this presentation very helpful as this is very easy to explain their Children. Even, Civil Service Exam aspirants and other exam aspirants like Life Sciences, Groups etc., find this presentation helpful and useful for their preparation.
Hippopotamus are large semi-aquatic mammals native to sub-Saharan Africa. They can weigh over 4,400 pounds and inhabit lakes, rivers, and mangrove swamps. Hippos are considered one of the most dangerous animals in Africa, killing an estimated 500 people per year due to their aggressive territorial behavior. Despite their large size, hippos can reach running speeds of over 40 kph on land. Hippos spend their days in water to keep cool and prevent sunburn, but graze on land at night, consuming over 35 kg of grass each night.
The document discusses several bizarre deep sea creatures, including the blobfish, candiru, coelacanth, fangtooth, goblin shark, longnose chimera pup, monkfish, oarfish, northern snakehead, vampire squid, viperfish, bathysaurus, snaggletooth, wolf fish, axolotl, longlure frogfish, fangtooth fish, and deep-sea glass squid. It provides brief descriptions of each creature's unusual appearance and behaviors.
Animal classification (slideshare version - no hyperlinks)sherrykacel
Animal classification organizes animals into a hierarchy of groups based on shared characteristics. At the highest level is the kingdom, with five main classes of vertebrates - mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Each group has distinguishing features, and examples are provided of animals from each group that can be found in Michigan.
Blue whales can eat large amounts of krill due to their baleen plates and large gulp size. Sea snakes are ocean reptiles with long bodies that are highly venomous but use venom mainly for defense. Dolphins communicate through various noises, have feelings, and are playful animals that can perform tricks. The document discusses reasons for choosing these three sea animals for a new zoo: blue whales because they are the largest animal, sea snakes because they are unusual snakes that live in water, and dolphins because they are playful and the author has cuddled one before.
Great white sharks are apex predators that can breach out of the water at speeds up to 40 mph to attack seals. Seal Island near Cape Town is home to over 60,000 seals and is frequented by a dozen great whites, making it a place where shark breaching occurs commonly as the sharks hunt the seals. Witnessing shark breaching in their natural habitat from the safety of a shark cage is an opportunity offered by tour companies like Extreme Scene, with trips available to Seal Island in False Bay or to Gansbaai, known as the Shark Capital of the World.
The document discusses several different types of mammals. It describes the whale shark as the biggest mammal, growing over 50 feet long and weighing over 18 metric tons. It notes that cheetahs are the fastest land animal, able to run almost 60 miles per hour. Elephants are described as the largest land animals, with males living alone and females living in family groups to raise young. Lions are portrayed as the "king of the beasts" with loud roars that can be heard over 5 miles away. Giraffes have the title of tallest land animal, sometimes growing over 20 feet tall. Tigers are called fierce hunters that can kill prey with a single bite. Kangaroos are marsupials that carry their joe
There are 5 species of flamingos ranging in size from 4 to 5 feet tall. Their distinctive pink color comes from carotenoid pigments in their diet of algae, shrimp, and small fish. Flamingo species are found across Africa, southern Europe, Asia, and South America. While some species populations are stable, the Andean flamingo is vulnerable due to habitat loss from mining. Flamingos filter feed with specialized bills and breed colonially, reaching sexual maturity at around 6 years old.
This document lists and provides some information about various water animals including fish like salmon and tuna, birds that fish such as kingfishers and pelicans, marine mammals like dolphins and whales, and reptiles like crocodiles and alligators. It provides specific details about Banggai cardinal fish changing sex from male to female as they mature and dolphins' ability to sleep with half of their brain at a time. The document covers a wide range of aquatic animals found in oceans, rivers, and lakes.
This document discusses several endangered and critically endangered animal species. It provides facts about the Fishing Cat, African Wild Dog, African Penguin, Red Wolf, Javan Rhinoceros, and Sumatran Elephant. It explains that efforts are being made to protect these species but sometimes fail, and that habitat loss and hunting are the main reasons for their endangered statuses. The conclusion encourages the reader to help conservation efforts to save endangered animals.
This document contains interesting facts about several different animal species:
- Gorillas will soak the fur on their hands to drink water and rhinos wallow in mud to protect their skin from sunburn.
- You can tell male and female gorillas apart by the male's dome-shaped skull and larger size. Female rhinos produce 20-25 liters of milk per day after giving birth.
- Bengal tigers can kill the equivalent of 30 buffaloes per year and eat 31kg of meat in a night, while Siberian tigers are the largest cats weighing 250-280kg. Humpback whales need over a ton of food daily and have been known to stay underwater for 30 minutes.
This document provides an overview of frogs, including their classification in the kingdom Animalia and phylum Chordata. It describes frogs' characteristic smooth skin and webbed feet adapted for swimming. Frogs live near freshwater globally and have a four stage life cycle of egg, tadpole, metamorphosis, and adult. They eat insects and small animals and have behaviors like camouflage, poison, and calling to attract mates or warn of danger. The document outlines different frog types and their benefits to humans as insect controllers.
