    The Dog
    The dog (Canis lupus
    familiaris and Canis
    lupus dingo) is a
    domesticated form of the
    gray wolf, a member of the
    Canidae family of the order
    Carnivora. The term is used
    for both feral and pet
    varieties. The dog was the first
    animal to be domesticated,
    and has been the most widely
    kept working, hunting, and
    companion animal in human
    history. The word "dog" may
    also mean the male of a
    canine species, as opposed to
    the word "bitch" for the
    female of the species.
    The Cat
    The cat (Felis catus), also known
    as the domestic cat or housecat
    to distinguish it from other felines
    and felids, is a small furry
    domesticated carnivorous
    mammal that is valued by humans
    for its companionship and for its
    ability to hunt vermin and
    household pests. Cats have been
    associated with humans for at
    least 9,500 years, and are currently
    the most popular pet in the world.
    Owing to their close association
    with humans, cats are now found
    almost everywhere on Earth.
    The cow
    Cattle (colloquially cows) are the
    most common type of large
    domesticated ungulates. They are a
    prominent modern member of the
    subfamily Bovinae, are the most
    widespread species of the genus Bos,
    and are most commonly classified
    collectively as Bos primigenius.
    Cattle are raised as livestock for meat
    (beef and veal), as dairy animals for
    milk and other dairy products, and
    as draft animals (pulling carts, plows
    and the like). Other products include
    leather and dung for manure or fuel.
    In some countries, such as India,
    cattle are sacred. It is estimated that
    there are 1.3 billion cattle in the
    world today. In 2009, cattle became
    the first livestock animal to have its
    genome mapped.
    The horse
    The horse (Equus ferus caballus)[2][3] is a
    hooved (ungulate) mammal, a subspecies
    of the family Equidae. The horse has
    evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years
    from a small multi-toed creature into the
    large, single-toed animal of today. Humans
    began to domesticate horses around 4000
    BC, and their domestication is believed to
    have been widespread by 3000 BC.
    Although most horses today are
    domesticated, there are still endangered
    populations of the Przewalski's Horse, the
    only remaining true wild horse, as well as
    more common populations of feral horses
    which live in the wild but are descended
    from domesticated ancestors. There is an
    extensive, specialized vocabulary used to
    describe equine-related concepts, covering
    everything from anatomy to life stages,
    size, colors, markings, breeds, locomotion,
    and behaviour.
    The Elephant
    The Indian Elephant, Elephas maximus
    indicus, is one of four surviving subspecies
    of the Asian Elephant, the largest
    population of which is found in India. This
    subspecies is also found in Bangladesh,
    Bhutan, Cambodia, China, Laos,
    Peninsular Malaysia, Burma/Myanmar,
    Nepal, The Indian Elephant is up to
    6.4 metres (21 ft) long.[citation needed] Its height
    at the shoulder is between 2 and 3.5 metres
    (6.6 and 11.5 ft) and it weighs between 2.7
    and 4.5 tonnes (3.0 and 5.0 short tons). It is
    taller and thinner than the Asian elephant
    found in Thailand. The Indian elephant is
    known for its large amounts of defecation
    in one time. The largest Indian Elephant
    was 8 metres (26 ft) long, stood 3.5 metres
    (11 ft) and weighed 8 tonnes (8.8 short
    tons).Thailand and Vietnam.
    The Tiger
    The Bengal tiger, or Royal
    Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris
    tigris, previously Panthera
    tigris bengalensis), is a
    subspecies of tiger native to
    India, Bangladesh, Nepal and
    Bhutan. The Bengal tiger is the
    most numerous of the tiger
    subspecies — with populations
    estimated at 1,411 in India, 200
    in Bangladesh, 155 in Nepal and
    67–81 in Bhutan.
