This work was created during practical science lessons at a public school in the city of Teresina, Piauí, Brazil. The aim was to show the biodiversity of the fauna found in the green area of the Professor Camillo Filho Municipal School, thus arousing students' interest in zoology content and encouraging teachers to carry out more practical lessons. The animals that make up this material have been divided into two groups, invertebrates and vertebrates. Within each group they are organized in alphabetical order of their popular names. Each animal contains taxonomic information, characteristics, habitat, distribution, behavior, feeding, reproduction, habits and economic importance, as well as a table of curiosities entitled Did you know? What's the difference? Box Navegando - with indications of sites for research and a glossary. This book can therefore be used as a teaching resource for zoology.
