Using ArrayList and Extends
I'm trying to set up my arraylist in my Animal class but should it be in my AnimalDisplayList instead? Also if I'm trying to get the type of Bird through the Bird class should I set the static variables to ints so that the user can just get a #? Also I've used ints in my animal class for size but I don't know If i've stated them correctly. I'm also getting errors on my ENUM but I don't really understand why... Is enum supposed to be in a class by itself? Any help is appreciated. Here are the errors I'm getting:
Animal.java:38: ',', '}', or ';' expected
BEAGLE = 0,
^
Animal.java:38: '}' expected
BEAGLE = 0,
^
Animal.java:39: <identifier> expected
PITBULL = 1;
^
Animal.java:40: <identifier> expected
LABRADOR = 2;
^
etc...

The animal class is an abstract class representing a single animal. It should not have an arraylist in it.

OK. If I used the following format with Breed(ID#) would I need to call this in the constructor of Animal?
import java.util.ArrayList;
public abstract class Animal
{
// protected int id;
// protected int age;
// protected int size;
// protected String needs;
// protected String description;
// public static final int GIANT = 1;
// public static final int LARGE = 2;
// public static final int MEDIUM = 3;
// public static final int SMALL = 4;
// public static final int MINIATURE = 5;
// public static final int CATSIZE = 6;
// public static final int BIRDSIZE = 7;
private AnimalType id = null;
private int age = 0;
private int size = 0;
private String needs = "";
private String description = "";

this.description = animalDesc;
