I think you found the correct link, but I also updated it on this page.
Hello
So we are having problems with the link. If I google animal bytes seaworld is this where we should be?
Hi Aurora,
Just one question, what does the Order mean? I only got two other animals besides the first one that were in the same Order. The next category down is Family, and only one other had the same as the first one. (They were both the same animal, but different Species.) What is the general criteria used for the Order group?
Thank you,
Juliette, (13)
Oops – you’re right! They moved the page. I’ll get my team to fix it for you, and we’ll repost that one shortly.
Thanks,
Aurora

We’re going to access another website (Seaworld) that has a HUGE catalog of living organisms and their scientific names. Here’s how you do it:
Now, you should see the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species of the animal. Write this down in your science journal.
Next to this entry in your journal, list five animals that you think are similar to the animal you chose. Now go back to the website and write down the information for each one.
For each of the five animals, determine how close they are to the animal you chose. For example, are they in the same family, but not the same genus? The same order but not the same family? Have fun!

First, visit this website: http://www.seaworld.org/animal-info/animal-bytes/index.htm
Select an animal from the list.
Now, you should see the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species of the animal. Write this down in your science journal.
Next to this entry in your journal, list five animals that you think are similar to the animal you chose. Now go back to the website and write down the information for each one.
