According to [[scripture]], '''Kinds''' are categories of related [[animals]]. God created a number of different types of animals with much capacity for variation within limits. The descendants of each of these different kinds, apart from humans, would today mostly be represented by a larger grouping than what is called a [[species]]. In most cases, those species descended from a particular original kind would be grouped today within what modern taxonomists call a [[genus]]. There are however some important difference between a Kind and Species.
==Classification==
Some of the major Kind groups are as follows:
- Horses, zebras and donkeys and giraffes are probably descended from an ''equine'' (horse-like) kind.
- Dogs, wolves, coyotes and the walrus are probably from a ''canine'' (dog-like) kind.
- Cats, tigers, lions, lepards and pumas are descended from ''Carnivora'' (cat-like) kind.
- All different types of domestic cattle and buffaloes are descended from the ''Udders'' (Cows-like) kind.
- Monkeys, apes, lemurs and sloths are all from the ''primate'' kind.
- All birds including: parrots, chickens, penguins, ostriches and bats are descended from ''bird'' kind.
- Weasels, badgers, beavers, hamsters, and hedgehogs are probably descended from a ''fur-wearing mouse-like'' kind.
- Frogs, toads, newts, lizards, and snakes are descended from an ''underwater non-fish'' like kind.
- All insects including: bees, flies, moths, nits, ticks, leeches and snails are descended from ''small'' kind.
- The platypus, starfish, kangaroo and turtles are completely unrelated to anything else.
