All of the animals I chose are in the same kingdom and phylum. The killer whale and the Asian elephant are also in the same class, but their order, family, genus and species are different. The Steller's Jay , blue jay and the Indian peacock are in the same kingdom phylum and class. The blue jay and the Steller's jay share the same order, family and genus. the Steller's jay is a Stelleri species and the blue jay is a Cristata species. That is the only difference between them. The Indian peacock has a different order, family, genus and species.
My question is how is a whale considered a mammal but not other fish?
