Animal Classification

Fish, reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and birds all have something in common. Do you know what it is? If you said they all have a backbone, you are correct! We will use the mnemonic device FRAMB to remember the names of the animals that have a backbone.

F - fish
R - reptiles
A - amphibians
M - mammals
B - birds
