📊 The animal numbers, as data
105 animals and 305 figures, each with the page it came from and the day it was checked. A figure no trusted page gives is empty, never guessed.
What each figure has
length_m | nose to tail tip, metres (a wingspan where the note says so). Each comes as a value or a low and high, a note, the source’s name and address, and the checked date. |
|---|---|
height_m | shoulder height, or standing height for an animal that stands tall, metres. Each comes as a value or a low and high, a note, the source’s name and address, and the checked date. |
weight_kg | a grown-up's weight, kilograms. Each comes as a value or a low and high, a note, the source’s name and address, and the checked date. |
speed_kmh | top speed, kilometres an hour, with how it moves in the note. Each comes as a value or a low and high, a note, the source’s name and address, and the checked date. |
lifespan_years | how long it usually lives, years (the note says when it is in human care or a maximum). Each comes as a value or a low and high, a note, the source’s name and address, and the checked date. |
Using it
Free to reuse with a link to peabody.kids/animals. Each number keeps its own source; Wikidata figures are CC0, US federal pages are public domain, and the Smithsonian's National Zoo figures are facts cited from its pages.
The files also carry each animal’s science name, its Wikidata item, its kind, its habitats, what it eats in one word, and its IUCN Red List category. How the numbers were found and checked is on Where do the numbers come from? and the grown-ups’ page.
