zoologinen

Zoologinen is a Finnish word that translates to "zoological" in English. It refers to anything related to zoology, the scientific study of animals. This can encompass a wide range of subjects, including animal behavior, physiology, genetics, evolution, and classification.

In Finland, the term "Zoologinen" is commonly found in contexts related to museums, research institutions, and academic departments dedicated to the study of animals. For example, a zoological museum would house collections of preserved animals and related artifacts for scientific research and public exhibition. Similarly, a zoological department at a university would be responsible for teaching and conducting research in the field of zoology.

The scope of zoology is vast, covering everything from microscopic invertebrates to large mammals. Zoologists may specialize in specific animal groups, such as ornithology (the study of birds), ichthyology (the study of fish), or mammalogy (the study of mammals). Their work can contribute to our understanding of biodiversity, conservation efforts, and the intricate web of life on Earth. The adjective "zoologinen" is used to describe anything pertaining to this diverse and essential scientific discipline.
