    Animals breathe using different organs depending on their environment - land animals typically use lungs, water animals use gills, some use moist skin, and insects use spiracles. Lungs are used by birds and mammals, gills by fish and crustaceans like crabs, moist skin by worms and amphibians like frogs, and spiracles by insects including butterflies and caterpillars. Some amphibians can use both lungs and moist skin to breathe on land and in water.
