It is typically used to describe non-human living beings, particularly those that are wild or untamed. The term emphasizes the vitality and life inherent in these creatures.

Cultural and Historical Background:In ancient Hebrew culture, animals played a significant role in daily life, serving as sources of labor, food, and clothing.
