Fu Dog / Foo Dog
shí shī zi
While known in the west as fu dogs or foo dogs, these are actually guardian lions.
These are the lion statues traditionally placed at the entrance of Chinese imperial palaces, imperial tombs, temples, and high-ranking officials' homes. These days, you are more likely to see them at the entrance to a fancy Chinese restaurant.
石獅子 means “stone lion(s).”
Human Race / Humanity / Mankind
人類 is the way to say mankind or humankind in Chinese.
It's kind of the “animal title” for humans. 人類 is the word you would use if you said this phrase in Chinese, “Mammals include dolphins, monkeys, dogs, and humans among others.”
人類 is a weird selection for a calligraphy wall scroll. But a customer begged me to add this word.
