Linnaeus's classification system is often represented as an upside-down triangle because it starts with the broadest categories at the top (kingdom) and narrows down to the most specific categories at the bottom (species). This hierarchical structure reflects the evolutionary relationships among organisms, with more closely related species grouped together at lower levels. By organizing organisms in this way, Linnaeus's system allows for easier identification, comparison, and study of living organisms based on their shared characteristics.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
