Transcript: Birds belong to the kingdom Animala. Anamalia is composed of multicellular, eukaryotic cells. Basic Bird Facts Birds are part of the Animala kingdom. Like most animals birds have tissue and basic organs. Birds fall under the vertebrate category because they have a backbone. Also they have hollow bones which helps them fly. Birds feed by mashing and mixing the food in their stomache. The stomache does to birds what teeth do to humans. Birds are also warm blooded and there are over 10,000 different species. Endangered Here are some examples of endangered and extinct birds. Pingeons, Sparrows, Crows, Gulls, House Finch, Blue Jay, Canada Goose, Cedar Waxwing, Mallard, Northern Cardinal, Class Extinct and Engangered Birds Birds belong to the class Aves. Aves' are feathered, winged, and two legged. These are the most common birds in the Desert, Grassland, Urban/Suburban, and the Woodland. There are many bird species that have gone extinct over the years, but here are some examples. Choiseul crested pigeon Mauritius blue pigeon Norfolk kaka Woodpecker, Goldcrest, Greenfinch, Jay, Crossbill, Linnet Desert A Bird's Digestive System Bird Environments The bird's digestive system is integral in keeping the bird healthy and nourished. Some birds will starve within hours if they don't eat food. The type of beak and tongue depends on the type bird, such as a vulture will have a very strong beak made to tear flesh, wear a bluejay's beak would not be that strong. The stomache then churns and mushes the food so it can be digested. Birds are in the order Passeiformes, which more than half the birds in the Aves class are in. Greater Roadrunner, Gila Woodpecker, Costa's Hummingbird, Turkey Vulture Grassland Urban/Suburban Work Cited Extinct Phylum Kingdom Woodland Birds belong to the Phylum Chordata.
