Explanation:

This HTML code defines a webpage with a form and a dropdown menu.
The form is set to submit data using the POST method to a specified URL.
The dropdown menu allows users to select one option from the provided choices.
Each option in the dropdown menu represents an animal.
The name attribute is added to the <select> tag, defining the name for the dropdown list. This name will be used to identify the dropdown list when the form is submitted.
The form includes a submit button for users to submit their selection.
When the form is submitted, the selected option will be sent to the specified URL along with any other form data.
