Mammals and birds are endothermic vertebrates. They are able to regulate their own body temperature. The term 'endothermic' is the biological term for an animal that is warm-blooded.

Therefore, some of the thousands of endothermic vertebrates could be dogs, cats, kangaroos, parrots, eagles, monkeys, cheetahs, horses, koalas, ducks, etc.
