An introduction to vertebrates, the diverse group of animals with a backbone that includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.

Explore convergent evolution, the fascinating process where unrelated species independently develop similar traits to adapt to similar environments.

Discover zoology, the branch of biology dedicated to studying animal life, its importance for conservation, and its impact on our world.

Dive into Animalia, the vast biological kingdom of all animals. Explore the diversity, classification, and importance of these incredible life forms.

An introduction to taxonomy, the science of classifying living organisms, and its critical importance in conservation, medicine, and research.

Discover cladistics, the scientific method for classifying organisms based on shared ancestry and mapping the evolutionary 'family trees' of life.

Discover common descent, the evolutionary theory that all life on Earth shares a single universal ancestor. Learn how it unites all living things.
