- Animalia - Kingdom containing multicellular organisms having cells bound by a plasma membrane and organized into tissue and specialized tissue systems that permit them to either move about in search of food or to draw food toward themselves.

They possess a nervous system with sensory and motor nerves, enabling them to receive environmental stimuli and to respond with specialized movements.

- farmers - Those who cultivate land or crops or raise livestock as their main occupation, whether for livlihood or for sustenance.

- genre
- oxen - Castrated adult male cattle, typically used as draft animals.
- pastoral - Genre that depicts or evokes idyllic life in the country; in works of pictorial art, often scenes of shepherds and shepherdesses in idealized arcadian landscapes.
