  • Understanding Scientific Names of Animal Orders: A Guide
    The scientific name of an order is always written in Latin and ends in "-formes".

    For example:

    * Primates is the order that includes monkeys, apes, and humans.

    * Carnivora is the order that includes dogs, cats, bears, and seals.

    * Rodentia is the order that includes rats, mice, squirrels, and beavers.

    It's important to note that while the order name ends in "-formes," the scientific name itself can vary. For example, the order Primates is not scientifically referred to as "Primatesformes."
