AIR ANIMAL


A number of animals have evolved aerial locomotion, either by powered flight or by gliding. Flying and gliding animals have evolved separately many times, without any single ancestor. Flight has evolved at least four times, in theinsects, pterosaurs, birds, and bats. Gliding has evolved on many more occasions. Usually the development is to aidcanopy animals in getting from tree to tree, although there are other possibilities. Gliding, in particular, has evolved among rainforest animals, especially in the rainforests in Asia (most especially Borneo) where the trees are tall and widely spaced. Several species of aquatic animals, and a few amphibians have also evolved to acquire this gliding flight ability, typically as a means of evading predators.



LAND ANIMALS

Land animals (terrestrial animals) are animals that live predominantly or completely on land (e.g. cats, rabbits, dogs, cows, snakes)




SEA ANIMALS

                          Creatures living in the Sea.



AMPHIBIAN


  1. a cold-blooded vertebrate animal of a class that comprises the frogs, toads, newts, and salamanders. They are distinguished by having an aquatic gill-breathing larval stage followed (typically) by a terrestrial lung-breathing adult stage.
    • a seaplane, tank, or other vehicle that can operate on land and on water.



ANIMAL


a living organism that feeds on organic matter, typically having specialized sense organs and nervous system and able to respond rapidly to stimuli.
