The History of Animals had a powerful influence on zoology for some two thousand years. It continued to be a primary source of knowledge until zoologists in the sixteenth century, such as Conrad Gessner, all influenced by Aristotle, wrote their own studies of the subject.

Gessner was aware of fakery in the curio shops market, where dried rays were manipulated to look like dragons (for example Jenny Hanivers). [8] There may have also been fake mermaid-like creatures being imported from China by the Dutch. [9] Fascinating yet educational, the amazing world of Animal Kingdom opens up right in front of your eyes with Animalium, a picture encyclopedia of Life Science Studies on the animal classifications. The book contains astonishing collection of more than 160 colorful and nostalgic illustrations by a London based artist and curator, Katie Scott. Her Sepia brown tinted drawings printed on the slightly yellow parchment colored papers are magical enough to transport you into a museum as if you are looking at Charles Darwin's original scientific journals from 1800s through a protected glass encasement.

While there is consensus that the History of Animals was aimed mostly at describing attributes of animals, there is a debate about whether or not it suggests that Aristotle was also interested in producing a taxonomy. Most philosophers who have studied the History of Animals and Aristotle's other writings suggest that Aristotle was not trying to produce a taxonomy, [4] but more recent studies by biologists reach different conclusions.
