Contest: How would you describe our "Animals" category?

CONTEST CLOSED!
Thanks to all who offered up ideas and a big congrats to M2C for providing the winning entry!


Hiya, folks! I'm not sure if you're aware of this or not, but our friend Alf has been helping us keep the categories in line for about two years now. If you put something in the wrong place, it's often him who helps put it where it really belongs, so people who want to answer your question can find it easier. Yay, Alf!!! Alf has been working overtime as of late because it seems a lot of people are having trouble with finding the right categories, so we're trying to fix that. As of yesterday, Element 99 agreed to help as well. Yay, Element!!! Now, here's the fun part:

We need better descriptions for what belongs in each category, so it'll be easier for members to know what to put where, and it will be easier for the guys to work in tandem without any gladiator-style incidents. ;) I tried making descriptions, but my descriptions kind of stink. That's where you wonderful folks come in. Every couple of days, I'm going to ask a question asking you to define a specific category. The most-liked description wins and will be used on our main category page. In the event of a tie, I'll pick the top ones and open up a poll on it. 

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to come up with a better description for the "animals" category, which currently reads:
For questions and answers about wild animals. For discussions about domesticated animals, please use the "Pets" category.

Yeah... boring. So, if you can jazz it up some, so that it makes sense to people and doesn't violate the TOS in any way, add it as an answer below. And, remember, your "likes" count as votes here, so make sure you're liking your absolute favorite responses.

I'll be checking this thread on Sunday morning and will mark the winner as "Asker's Pick" (provided there's a clear winner) and will post the next round as a new question then.

    They may not be necessary for how you use the site, but a lot of people do use them.

    As far as the search goes, it's something I'll have the dev address when there's a budget to do so.
