Humans have been fascinated by the other members of the animal kingdom throughout history. In early Europe , they gathered up and catalogued descriptions of strange animals from distant lands or deep seas , such as are recorded in the Physiologus and in the works of Albertus Magnus . His work was based largely on the writings of Aristotle (384–322 BC). Magnus'

    What You Need to Do to Pass Lecture and Lab
    Vertebrate zoology is one of the hardest courses you will probably ever take in college. It ranks right up there with organic chemistry. At least organic chemistry sounds scary and evil though. When you hear the word "zoology" it probably doesn't send shivers up your spine (unless you've already attempted the course and failed it).
    When most people think of zoology, they think of studying animals. Specifically, people think of studying cute animals and usually they are thinking of the cutest animals in the zoo. Well, get the association of cute zoo animals and zoology out of your head right now. The first thing you need to know about zoology, is that there is no "zoo" when the word is pronounced. If you go to office hours and pronounce "zoology" incorrectly the professor may be more than a little annoyed. Think of the word as being two separate parts: "zo" "ology". If you're taking zoology, you've already have courses like biology. The "ology" part is still pronounced the same way. The "zo" is pronounced so that it rhymes with "snow" and "go" and other such words.

      Vertebrate Zoology is the study of animals with backbones. Research in the department covers fishes amphibians, reptiles birds , and mammals . The department holds the largest collection of vertebrate specimens in the world, including historically important collections from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Research in the department provides a solid foundation of understanding for government agencies, conservation organizations, and individuals involved in fish and wildlife management. Zoologists from two other federal agencies work so closely with colleagues and specimens at the Museum that they are permanently stationed in the building. Specialists from the National Marine Fisheries Service of the U.S. Department of Commerce focus primarily on commercially important fishes, while those from the

List and describe the three classes of living fish. 2. Describe how a fish's diverse body characteristics correlate with function. 3. Discuss the "theory" that all land animals evolved from fish. Include information regarding the following:
    a. Is the above statement in #3 really a theory as defined by the scientific method? Why or why not?
    b. If the information provided does not support this statement as "theory", what other terms may apply to that statement, again, as defined by the scientific method?
    c. What type of evolution would result in the development of land animals from fish?
    d. For such a transformation to occur, the evidence for such an event would be preserved in the fossil record as transitional forms; does the video describe any fossil evidence of transitional forms that would indicate evolution giving rise to land animals from fish? 4. Define the following:

    General Statement
    Think of Biology 222 - Vertebrate Zoology - as the second half of a year- long course in Zoology. Completion of Invertebrate Zoology is not a prerequisite. It should be recognized that invertebrates comprise 95% of all the animal species - that leaves 5% for the vertebrates. Why do we spend so much time on such a small group? The answer lies in the fact that we are vertebrates and have a natural interest in other organisms like us. Also, vertebrates tend to be larger and more intelligent than invertebrates, and thus they are more likely to be seen, and more likely to be doing something interesting. Finally, other vertebrates comprise a large portion of our diets.
