Everything in this sheet, from the wolf to the fallen tree it jumped on, can be classified using the same taxonomy. On the big stage of life, every creature is a unique actor. In order to better understand and study this colorful world, we have adopted a classification system, which is like labeling each life and putting it in its place. This classification system is like a magic key that has helped scientists open the door to studying plant and animal diversity, classifying seemingly unrelated species. From spectacular herds of horses to tiny insects to mysterious worms, animal taxonomy explores every nook and cranny of the so-called animal kingdom in great detail. The original intention of this classification was to better recognize and understand life, and its origin is attributed to the great Swedish scholar Carl Linnaeus. In 1735, he first proposed this great system in his 11-page Systema Naturae. Linnaeus saw his work as "created by God, organized by Linnaeus", and he was not the first to try to read all life forms, but his contribution was epoch-making. In Linnaeus's time, there was no uniform standard for the classification of organisms, and various systems emerged one after another. But Linnaeus was convinced that there should be a conventional, systematic approach to classifying living things. The "natural system" he proposed became the basis of later taxonomy. Originally, Linnaeus set up a taxonomic kingdom of only three kingdoms: the animal, plant, and mineral kingdoms. Nowadays, we classify organisms according to five kingdoms: the kingdom Animalia, the kingdom Fungi, the kingdom Prokaryotes, the kingdom Plants, and the kingdom Protists. There are many kinds of creatures in the animal kingdom, and they obtain energy by ingesting food, which is fundamentally different from plants. The fungal kingdom includes multicellular organisms with organelles and cell walls, such as the familiar chanterelles, penny packets, and fly fungus. The prokaryotic kingdom includes single-celled organisms, such as bacteria. The plant kingdom is home to those organisms that are multicellular and have organelles and chloroplasts. The protist kingdom, on the other hand, includes single-celled organisms that have organelles and may have cell walls and chloroplasts. In the animal kingdom, every creature is meticulously divided into eight classes. At the topmost level of the domain, there are three major domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes, while the animals we know belong to the realm of eukaryotes. In a more specific taxonomy, animals belong to five kingdoms, seven phyla, thirty-seven classes, three hundred and thirty-seven orders, more than three thousand seven hundred families, and more than twenty thousand genera. Each level of classification is like a label, giving a unique label to the creature. Finally, under the genus classification, each species has its unique scientific name. This is made up of two parts, the genus name and the species name, with the first letter of the genus name capitalized and the species name lowercase. This binomial nomenclature was coined by Linnaeus in order to unify the naming conventions. Here are a few examples of animal classification.
