Vertebrate zoology
Vertebrate zoology is the biological discipline that consists of the study of Vertebrate animals, i.e., animals with a backbone, such as fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. The University of California, Berkeley has a Vertebrate Zoology section where a research was done.[1]
Subdivisions
This subdivision of zoology has many further subdivisions, including:
- Ichthyology - the study of fishes.
- Mammalogy - the study of mammals.
- Chiropterology - the study of bats.
- Primatology - the study of primates.
- Ornithology - the study of birds.
- Herpetology - the study of reptiles.
- Batrachology - the study of amphibians.
These divisions are sometimes further divided into more specific specialties.
gollark: CEASE utilization of normal CC.
gollark: Er, not packet but... label change? Frame?

gollark: I had some other labelnet ideas: it could use bundlenet to out of band signal stuff like "accepting labelnet connection on this side".
gollark: You could probably detect TPS using my magic algorithm® and compensate, or just slow down on checksum errors.
