Wildlife Biology 101 Basic Features to look for Class/Family/type Color Size SIZE Shape Shape Distribution Habitat ♂ Sex ♂ ♀ sexual dimorphism

Wildlife Biology 101 Basic Features to look for Class/Family/name Class: Mammalia Order: Artiodactyla Family: Cervidae Genus: Odocoileus Species: hemionus.

Wildlife Biology 101 Basic Features to look for Color

Wildlife Biology 101 Basic Features to look for Size SIZE Bee humming bird Around 1.6grams or 0.05 ounces Ostrich tops out at ~160 kgs or 350lbs—note one ostrich eye which is the size of a base ball and the largest eye of any land animal—bigger than its eye weighs ~60grs
