Animals
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms of the kingdom Animalia (also called Metazoa). All animals are motile, meaning they can move spontaneously and independently, at some point in their lives.

All animals are heterotrophs: they must ingest other organisms or their products for sustenance.
