REPTILES | DISCOVER ANIMALS The first reptiles appeared approximately 315 million years ago. They were ectothermic (cold-blooded) and shared some superficial similarities to the amphibians who ruled the land at that time, but reptiles use their lungs to breathe from birth, possess watertight scale or scute-covered skin, and lay hard-shelled eggs which allows them to spend their entire lives on land. AMPHIBIANS | DISCOVER ANIMALS Amphibians are old! The earliest amphibians appeared around 370 million years ago, developing from lobe-finned fish, that used their fins to crawl on ocean floors. Amphibians ruled the land until reptiles and mammals came along. Now, they are much smaller in size, and less diverse: today almost 90% of all species of amphibian arefrogs.
