14. Zoological History
Zoology has informally been around since the beginning of time. The first Zoologist would have been early man observing and categorizing prehistoric animals. (i.e. I can eat this animal, or this animal will eat me)

15. History continued…
More complex classifications took place as those early members of civilization differentiated between, and note of things like:
The locations of specific, useful species of animals (for food, clothing, etc.)
Animal movement patterns
Which animals to avoid

16. And the History goes on…
Other instances of early civilization zoological contribution would be animal worship…
