Guess its a matter of definition. In my book, its Animals, fish, birds, plants and insects, but in my GFs book every living thing are animals (xept plants ofc) and then its divided into subgroups.

For everyone debating the definition of an animal, hit the show-thingie. It doesn't contain the answer of Jimson's riddle.
Image

Animals are usually multicellular creatures, and always eukaryotes. Mammals, fishes, birds, and insects are a part of this group.

Bacteria, Archaea, fungi, plants, etc, are not.

The black line, where everything stems from, is called LUCA: Last Universal Common Ancestor. It's of course not very likely everything stems from just *one* ancestor.

The kingdom Animalia is shown here:

Image

Jimson mentioned species of the Arthropoda (insects/bugs/others) and Chordata (everything with a spine and some more almost-spined creatures).

Image

This is a tree of the Chordata. The wolf, dog, cat, mouse (and us humans too) are Mammalia.
TL;DR version: the wolfs, dogs, cats, mice, and bugs are all animals. The grass and water are no animals.

Silversmith upcoming TL5 twink.
Wolfseye L110/12 Adventurer (towertwink).
Lysdexic L90/9 Agent (Mimic Enf towertwink).
Aesculapias L21/2 Doctor (ancient).

Aaaand various other alts.

you guys didn't count the number of chickens being devoured by jimson while making the riddle.

So, the answer is obviously 42.
