Kingdom Animalia
The kingdom Animalia or Metazoa encompasses the major group of organisms that in general are multicellular, and all are heterotrophs (ie they rely directly or indirectly on other organisms for their nourishment). In biological context, the group include homo sapiens.

Our aim here is not to reproduce the myriad of information that is available in print and on the internet for the web of life, but to provided some information, with images of living organisms that can be found here in Australia.

All information provided is for your enjoyment only and may not be accurate enough for scientific or academic purposes. Although we try to ensure that information provided is correct, if you do find any error, please let us know.
