Is there some difference between animals and reptiles? Are reptiles not animals themselves?

Yes, I wonder the same thing. They are all in the Animal kingdom, but not in the same Phylum, making them separate..(?) I don't know the exact reason. I'm not strong in any type of science.

Reptiles are as much of an animal as a bird or a fish. Their a different TYPE of animal, like a bird is different from a fish, but they're an animal all the same. Just like the human race.

OH I am so glad I am not the only one who is annoyed by that. I just posted it as a correction in the Correction thread in the home forum!!! See? Kipluck Okay, here goes my scientific pickiness, particularly when it comes to critters. "Animals & Reptiles" Reptiles ARE animals. They are not MAMMALS, but both mammals and reptiles are animals. Need proof? Check out a taxonomy chart! For instance, my Leopard Gecko, Jack! Quote: Scientific classification Kingdom: AnimaliaPhylum: Chordata Class: ReptiliaOrder: Squamata Suborder: Lacertilia Family: Gekkonidae Subfamily: Eublepharinae Genus: Eublepharis Species: 'macularius

I'm not strong in any type of science. Well, reptiles are in the same phylum as any animal with a spinal chord. They're a different class than other animals. Also in their own class are birds, fish, mammals and such.

I put it as a correction in the correction thread but they deleted it with OUT fixing it. Seriously, I said it nicely and would not have put it there if they hadn't ASKED for corrections. It's not like I can't abide incorrectness, but why ask if they don't want to change things? sweatdrop

No, since reptiles ARE animals, You could just call it Animals... or Mammals and Reptiles or Animals and Plants... or something else less counter-intuitive! biggrin
