Classifying species of animals by colour (eye, hair, skin, etc.) or other outward appearances is not prudent since many animals of even the same species have greatly varied colours and hues (humans, for example). Other species such as dogs have even more different outward appearances (golden retriever vs. chihuahua) even though they are the same species.

Why would grouping animals by colour be an unsatisfactory method of classification?

Grouping animals by color is an unsatisfactory method of classification because many species can have a wide range of colors or patterns within their population, making it difficult to create distinct and accurate groupings. Color is often influenced by factors such as environmental conditions, age, and health, rather than evolutionary relationships. Using color alone would not provide enough information to classify animals based on their genetic relatedness or evolutionary history.
