Did you know frogs are good bio-indicators because...\n1. they spend part of their life cycle on land and some in water\n2. have a permeable skin (which allows substances to move relatively freely into its body) and\n3. absorb and concentrate (make stronger) toxins (poisonous substances) in their fatty tissues\n\nDid you know that humans are also animals?\n\nIs a world population of 6 billion too many? Compare that with animals. There are more than a million animal species. There are 6,000 species of reptiles, 73,000 kinds of spiders, and 3,000 types of lice. For each person there is about 200 million insects. The 4,600 kinds of mammals represent a mere 0,3% of animals and the 9000 kinds of birds only 0,7%. The most numerous bird specie is the red-billed quelea of southern Africa. There are an estimated 100 trillion of them.\n\nMammals are the only animals with flaps around the ears.\n\nAfrican elephants only have four teeth to chew their food with.\n\n There are about one billion cattle in the world of which 200 million are in India.\n\nA house fly lives only 14 days.\n\nA dog was the first in space and a sheep, a duck and a rooster the first to fly in a hot air balloon.\n\nThe oldest breed of dog is the Saluki.\n\nThe bee hummingbird of Cuba is the smallest bird in the world.\n\nAn ostrich can run up to 70 km/h (43mph).\n\nAn annoyed camel will spit at a person.\n\nThe world's smallest dog is the Chihuahua, which means "tiny dog in the sky."\n\nPea crabs (the size of a pea) are the smallest crabs in the world.\n\n75% of wild birds die before they are 6 months old.\n\nThe pig is rated the fourth most intelligent animal but are mentioned only twice in the Bible.\n\nHerbevores (plant-eating organisms) have more than 1 stomach. \ntry googling. http://www.didyouknow.cd/fastfacts/animals.htm

Here is a great website for that sort of research. It has a taxonomic chart with hyperlinks to information, pictures, sounds, and specimens. There are more than a dozen phylums of 'worms' represented with many photos to help with identification. \n\nhttp://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/classification/Animalia.html

Having experienced both, I think it's a wonderful opportunity to learn responsibility and caring for animals. It also introduces children to basic biology and zoology. It also serves for inspiration in other subjects. Kids write stories about the pet(s), for example.

Not all involve only animals.  There are important family and tribe values taught in some stories.  \nThe most famous involve a spider whom often gets into mischief because he does not think of others.  \nSome storied are explanations for the unknown (like many myths). (why the mosquitoes fly into ears, and why the sun and moon rise and set..)\nIf you want to pass you should go to the library.
