Key Differences Between Birds and Mammals
Birds lay eggs, which have a hard, protective shell and contain all the nutrients needed for the embryo to develop. Mammals, on the other hand, give birth to live young and nourish them with milk. Birds also have hollow bones to reduce their body weight for flight, while mammal bones are solid.

When to Consult the Professionals
