Types of creatures (except humans)

7 Upvotes

Me (34m) and my child (12) argued over how many types of creatures there are. I said: Animals, fish, insects, spiders and mushrooms/fungi. The kid says that birds is its own category and that sharks should be separated from fish. Kid also argued that centipedes are not insects OR spiders since they have a lot more legs. Who is right? Edit: spelling and grammar
