Yes...we are all animals, more specifically we are mammals.
The mammals are the class of vertebrate animals characterized by the presence of mammary glands, which in females produce milk for the nourishment of young; the presence of hair or fur; and endothermic or "warm-blooded" bodies. The brain regulates endothermic and circulatory systems, including a four-chambered heart. Mammals encompass some 5,500 species (including Humans), distributed in about 1,200 genera, 152 families and up to 46 orders, though this varies with the classification scheme.
Phylogenetically, Mammalia is defined as all descendants of the most recent common ancestor of monotremes (e.g., echidnas and platypuses) and therian mammals (marsupials and placentals).

Living things are divided into 5 kingdoms. Plant, animal, fungi, protozoa and bacteria. We most definitely belong to the animal kingdom.

Yes. All life on earth is most commonly divided into five kingdoms:
- animals
- plants
- fungi
- protists (e.g. algae, amoebas, slime moulds, etc.)
- bacteria (prokaryotes)
Where would you put us? Most people would put us in the animal kingdom ... except perhaps for those people so full of hubris that they think we deserve our own kingdom.
