People often think of wildlife only as large animals like those they see inpictures of Africa with lions and elephants. They might think of creatures ofthe North American forests that they have seen like deer and elk. But wildlifeincludes all animals that have not been domesticated by people. Domesticated animals are those which have been tamed, made captive and bred forspecial purposes.
Wild animals are all the rest.
Spiders, insects, reptiles, amphibians and most speciesof fish, birds and mammals may be considered wildlife. Wildlife occurs in atremendous variety of forms and colors. And wildlife can be found all aroundus. Infact, each of us would die if all the organisms that inhabit our bodies were todisappear. People are never truly alone in an environment.
