It's more so a branch of studies rather than a level of biology, and there are a lot of branches.

Explanation:

Rather than level, it's more or less the specific field of study.

With biology, people do study organisms and their lives, but they also study their physical and chemical structures, as well as function, development, and evolution. This may include studies at the cellular level.

If you are curious at what occupation focuses solely on animal life, they include:

  • Zoologists: studies animals and their classification, physiology, development, and behavior.
  • Herpetologists: a branch of zoology that focuses on reptiles and amphibians.
  • Ornithologists: a branch of zoology that focuses on birds.
  • Ichthyologists: a branch of zoology that focuses on fish.
  • Entomologists: studies insects.
  • Microbiologists: studies microscopic organisms. May include viruses.
  • Botany: studies plants.

These are just the few of the many occupations that focuses on life. I simply named the ones that are more specific to life, yet more general to animal species.

Hope this helps :)
