ZOOLOGY, n. The science and history of the animal kingdom, including
its king, the House Fly (Musca maledicta). The father of Zoology
was Aristotle, as is universally conceded, but the name of its mother
has not come down to us. Two of the science's most illustrious
expounders were Buffon and Oliver Goldsmith, from both of whom we
learn (L'Histoire generale des animaux and A History of Animated
Nature) that the domestic cow sheds its horn every two years.
