It's the seven wonders of the world in no particular order:
1-. The pyramids at Giza
2-. The hanging gardens of Babylonia ( no longer around )
3-. The statue at Rhodes ( also no longer around )
4-. The Alexandrian lighthouse destroyed long ago, too
5-. The Temple of Artemis in Athens
6-. some building in Asia Minor
7-. the Temple to Zeus in Rome
That's what I remember. The Empire State Building in New York City, likes to bill itself as the Eighth Wonder of the Modern World.

i believe there are 7 and they are not animals, they are all buildlings or sculptures, unless you want the "natural wonders of the world" in which case they are probably things like waterfalls, mountains, etc. there are also new, updated lists being made all the time. in fact, yahoo is compiling one now.
