The images on this website are divided into six categories: Birds, Mammals, Reptiles & Amphibians, Insects & other invertebrates, Plants and Habitats & Wild Places.
The images appear in taxonomic order, as follows:
Birds - by family and genus, following the order used by BirdLife International.
Mammals - by order and family, following The Encyclopedia of Mammals by David MacDonald (2006).
To make it as easy as possible to find an image when browsing (i.e. when not using the search facility), the species in each folder appear in alphabetical order by their scientific name.
Square 'icons' are used to sub-divide the images into galleries (e.g. families or genera). To view an image (these are rectangular in shape – either horizontal or vertical) click on it and a medium-sized image will open up; click on it again and a large image will appear. Detailed information relating to the image appears below it.
To navigate to a specific gallery of images start by clicking on the relevant name in yellow in the bar below the WorldWildlifeImages.com logo.
To move to a different category, click on "Home" and then the relevant category icon.
To see a randomly selected image, just click on the ‘Random Image’ shown on the left hand side of the page and this will open up. At the same time a new random image will appear, so just repeat the process if you want to continue browsing in this way.
