Mammal
From RationalWiki
Mammals are a warm-blooded and mostly fluffy class of vertebrate animals, which feed their young using the mammary glands, for which the group is named.
Like birds, mammals evolved from reptiles, diverging from dinosaurs during or before the Jurassic era. Morganucodon was an early transitional form of mammal.
Australia's platypus and echidna (known as prototheria or monotremes) are alone among mammals in laying eggs, a sign of mammals' distant reptile ancestry. All other mammals (known as theria or therians) give birth to live young, including marsupials such as the kangaroo, which carry their young in a pouch.
Mammals are an enormously diverse group, thousands of species having developed varying traits in adapting to numerous habitats around the world. Mammals range from small rodents such as mice and rats, to bats, horses, sheep, goats, cats and other carnivores, marine mammals such as whales and dolphins, and primates, including monkeys, apes and humans.
According to creationists, virtually none of the above is correct. Beasts of the land were created intact on the sixth day of creation, whales having been created along with fish on the fifth day.
