"And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything that creepeth upon the earth after his kind and it was so.
And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fawl of the air, and over the cattle, and over the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."
Genesis 1:24-26
