Zoology

This group collects the Life Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns zoology: the study of animals, spanning ornithology, entomology, herpetology and the other animal-focused subfields, from the earliest classifiers of the animal kingdom to modern field zoologists. It is kept apart from Ecology And Evolutionary Biology, whose members study how species interact with their environment and change over time rather than animal classification and biology specifically.
