Another name for animals. It reflects an
earlier system of classification, in which
there were two main divisions within the
animal kingdom, the multicellular animals, or
metazoa, and the single-celled `animals' or
protozoa. The protozoa are no longer included
in the animal kingdom, so only the metazoa
remain.
