The work serves as one of the earliest comprehensive surveys of zoology, analyzing and categorizing various animal species based on their anatomy, behaviors, and habitats. It combines observations with the knowledge inherited from previous naturalists to create a foundational text in the history of biological sciences. The opening of "Aristotle's History of Animals" sets the stage for a detailed examination of the animal kingdom. Aristotle begins by classifying animal parts into simple and compound components, continuing with a discussion on the similarities and differences among various species based on their physical attributes and lifestyles. He lays out an extensive framework for understanding animals, including their modes of life—aquatic versus terrestrial—and anatomical structures, using comparative anatomy to illustrate his points. This introduction effectively establishes the categories and criteria Aristotle will use throughout the work to structure his exploration of the biological world.
