Paleontology is the scientific study of life existent prior to, and sometimes including the start of the Holocene Epoch roughly 11,700 years before present. It includes the study of fossils to determine organisms' evolution and interactions with each other and their environments.

Arthrology is the science concerned with the study of anatomy, function, dysfunction and treatment of joints and articulations.

Mammalogy is the study of mammals – a class of vertebrates with characteristics such as homeothermic metabolism, fur, four-chambered hearts, and complex nervous systems.
