Note:  Invertebrates do not have a backbone.  There are more
Invertebrates on earth than any other kind of animal.

 

You don’t have a backbone! You don’t have a backbone! You don’t have a backbone. Laugh. Laugh. Laugh. I don’t care, the spider said. You cannot hurt me, the beetle sang. Never wanted one, replied the butterfly. Wasp flew up and stung both of them.
