The Animal Diversity Web (ADW) is a non-profit group that hosts an online database site that collects natural history, classification, species characteristics, conservation biology, and distribution information on species of animals. The website includes photographs, sound clips, and a virtual museum.
The local, relational database is written and maintained by staff and student contributors from the University of Michigan.[1] It can be accessed through the web and mobile apps.[2] It offers resources for schoolteachers ("K–12 instructors"),[3][4] and functions as a virtual museum containing mostly mammals and a collection of skulls that can be virtually handled.
