Genesis 1:24-26

241Then God said, “Let the earth produce living creatures according to 2their kind: livestock and crawling things and animals of the earth according to 3their kind”; and it was so. 25God made the 4animals of the earth according to 5their kind, and the livestock according to 6their kind, and everything that crawls on the ground according to its kind; and God saw that it was good.

26Then God said, “7Let 8Us make 9mankind in Our image, according to Our likeness; and 10let them 11rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the livestock and over all the earth, and over every crawling thing that crawls on the earth.”
