Animals are amazing creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. From the tiny insects that live in the soil to the massive whales that swim in the oceans, there is no shortage of diversity in the animal kingdom.
Animals can be found all over the world and have adapted to live in a wide variety of environments. Some animals, like penguins, live in the coldest parts of the world, while others, like lions, live in the hottest. Some animals, like bats, live in the air, while others, like worms, live underground.
Animals play an important role in the ecosystem. They help to pollinate plants, disperse seeds, and control populations of other animals. Humans are also animals, and we share many similarities with other animals, such as our need for food, water, and shelter.
Here is a list of all the animals that have been identified so far.
