Mammals are a class of warm-blooded vertebrate animals that have a few defining characteristics. These include having hair or fur, producing milk to feed their young, and having three middle ear bones. Mammals are also characterized by their ability to regulate their body temperature, which allows them to thrive in a wide variety of environments.
There are over 5,000 species of mammals, and they can be found on every continent on Earth. Some well-known mammals include humans, cats, dogs, horses, cows, elephants, whales, dolphins, bats, and primates such as chimpanzees and gorillas.
Mammals play important roles in ecosystems as predators, prey, and seed dispersers. They are also important for their economic and cultural value, as they are used for food, transportation, and companionship. Many mammal species, however, are threatened or endangered due to habitat loss, climate change, and poaching. Conservation efforts are underway to protect these animals and their habitats.
