Best Answer

Mammala are animals.

Most mammals give birth to live young, while most other animals lay eggs, such as reptiles and fish (some of which are also live-bearers), amphibians and birds.

There are three species of egg-laying mammals, known as monotremes. This small group is made up of the platypus, the short-beaked echidna and the long-beaked echidna.
