* Domestic animals: Dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, etc.
* Wildlife: A broad spectrum, from birds to reptiles to amphibians.
* Exotic animals: Animals kept as pets (like snakes, lizards, hamsters, rabbits) or in zoos.

* Small animal: Dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small pets.
* Large animal: Cows, horses, pigs, and other livestock.
* Equine: Horses.
* Wildlife: Animals living in the wild.
