What belongs in this list?

Mammals are vertebrates whose defining features include hair and milk production. The group also includes whales, dolphins, bats, hoofed animals, primates, rodents, carnivores, and many other body plans.

Land and sea

Mammals occupy deserts, forests, grasslands, rivers, coasts, polar seas, and the open ocean. A habitat label describes where an animal lives, not a separate branch of mammal classification.

Movement and feeding

The list includes runners, climbers, diggers, swimmers, grazers, browsers, hunters, scavengers, and mixed-diet foragers.

Use the reviewed profiles

Profile links open editorially reviewed summaries with photographs, adaptations, behavior, conservation context, and source records.
