  • For mammal, if you wanna dig deeper into the orders… again, non-exhaustive, non-reviewed GPT stuff:

    Here’s a list of some of the major orders within the class Mammalia (mammals):

    1. Monotremata: Egg-laying mammals, such as the platypus and echidnas.

    2. Marsupialia: Marsupials, which give birth to underdeveloped young that typically continue to develop in a pouch, including kangaroos, koalas, and opossums.

    3. Eulipotyphla: Insectivores, including shrews, moles, and hedgehogs.

    4. Chiroptera: Bats, the only mammals capable of sustained flight.

    5. Primates: Includes lemurs, monkeys, apes, and humans.

    6. Rodentia: Rodents, characterized by continuously growing incisors, including mice, rats, squirrels, and beavers.

    7. Lagomorpha: Rabbits, hares, and pikas.

    8. Carnivora: Carnivorous mammals, including dogs, cats, bears, and seals.

    9. Perissodactyla: Odd-toed ungulates, such as horses, zebras, and rhinoceroses.

    10. Artiodactyla: Even-toed ungulates, including pigs, deer, giraffes, and cattle.

    11. Cetacea: Whales, dolphins, and porpoises.

    12. Sirenia: Manatees and dugongs, also known as sea cows.

    13. Proboscidea: Elephants, characterized by their long trunks.

    14. Hyracoidea: Hyraxes, small, herbivorous mammals that resemble rodents.

    15. Scandentia: Tree shrews, small mammals that are somewhat similar to squirrels.

    16. Dermoptera: Colugos or flying lemurs, gliding mammals found in Southeast Asia.

    17. Xenarthra: Includes anteaters, sloths, and armadillos, primarily found in the Americas.


  • Non-exhaustive, non-reviewed, GPT-generated list of classes:

    1. Mammals (Class Mammalia): Warm-blooded animals with hair or fur; most give live birth and produce milk for their young.

    2. Birds (Class Aves): Warm-blooded vertebrates with feathers, beaks, and typically the ability to fly.

    3. Reptiles (Class Reptilia): Cold-blooded vertebrates with scales, including snakes, lizards, turtles, and crocodiles.

    4. Amphibians (Class Amphibia): Cold-blooded vertebrates that typically begin life in water and undergo metamorphosis, including frogs, toads, and salamanders.

    5. Fish (Class Pisces): Cold-blooded aquatic vertebrates with gills, fins, and scales, including bony fish (Osteichthyes) and cartilaginous fish (Chondrichthyes).

    6. Arachnids (Class Arachnida): Invertebrates characterized by having eight legs and two main body segments, including spiders, scorpions, ticks, and mites.

    7. Insects (Class Insecta): The largest class of animals, characterized by having three main body segments, six legs, and typically one or two pairs of wings.

    8. Crustaceans (Class Crustacea): A diverse group of aquatic invertebrates with exoskeletons, including crabs, lobsters, shrimp, and barnacles.

    9. Invertebrates: While not a formal class, this group includes various animals without a backbone, such as:

      • Arthropods: Includes insects (Class Insecta), arachnids (Class Arachnida), and crustaceans (Class Crustacea).
      • Mollusks (Class Mollusca): Snails, clams, octopuses.
      • Annelids (Class Annelida): Segmented worms.
      • Cnidarians (Class Cnidaria): Jellyfish, corals, sea anemones.
      • Echinoderms (Class Echinodermata): Starfish, sea urchins.
