No leeches are definitely not Mammals. Leeches are annelids comprising the subclass Hirudinea. There are fresh water, terrestrial, and marine leeches. Like the Oligochaeta, they share the presence of a clitellum. Like earthworms, leeches are hermaphrodites. Some, but not all leeches feed on blood.

No, it isn't. Vertebrates have backbones. Leeches don't have backbones.

No, leeches are invertebrates. A mammal is a vertebrate animal (has a bony backbone protecting the spinal cord) that has hair on its skin and lactates (produces milk) for its offspring.
