The document describes five animal groups - mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and birds. Mammals give birth to live young that they feed milk to, and include humans. Reptiles have scales, lay eggs, and are cold-blooded. Amphibians can live both on land and in water. Fish breathe through gills, have fins and tails, and live exclusively in water. Birds have feathers, wings, lay eggs, and most can fly.
