Dusty with fish


Vertebrates are usually larger than invertebrates but there are many more invertebrates in the world.  Which makes sense, because they take up less space! Look at the difference in size between Dusty and this fish pictured above! Even though the fish is one of the smaller vertebrates, Dusty, a mammal, takes up much more space! Some of the smaller vertebrates include reptiles, amphibians, birds, and fish.
