Zoological terminology constitutes the linguistic symbols expressing the core concepts in the field of zoology. Translating these terms involves the expression of core concepts in zoology, which is crucial not only for zoological research and academic communication but also influences scholars' academic practices. This paper collects English and Chinese terms related to "足" and their existing translations, categorizing and summarizing the corpus of terms related to "足." Moreover, it provides a practical basis for naming newly emerged terms. The analysis in this paper offers guiding principles and readily applicable translation results for translators in the field of zoology when translating terms related to "足." Additionally, it presents translation strategies for newly emerged terms related to "足," offering effective solutions to translation challenges in zoological terminology concerning "足."
