'Animals' in the Bible

The Lord your God will drive out these nations before you little by little. You will not be able to destroy them all at once; otherwise, the wild animals will become too numerous for you.

These are the animals you may eat:the ox, the sheep, the goat,

But you may take the women, children, animals, and whatever else is in the city—all its spoil—as plunder. You may enjoy the spoil of your enemies that the Lord your God has given you.

Your corpses will be food for all the birds of the sky and the wild animals of the land, with no one to scare them away.
