如何向包含继承的 ArrayLists 添加属性?

How to add properties to ArrayLists that include inheritance?

我正在做一个关于继承的作业,到目前为止我已经创建了一个 superclass a subclass。在这些 classes 中,添加了一些方法来定义信息,例如动物的名字或年龄。现在我被要求做以下事情:

我对此完全感到困惑。如果我尝试在我的新 ArrayList 中创建动物,它会告诉我 Animal class 是抽象的,无法实例化。下面是相关classes的内容:

动物class(超级class)

abstract public class Animal 
{

    int age;
    String name;
    String noise;

Animal(String name, int age)   
{
    this.age = age;
    this.name = name;
} 

Animal()
{

  this("newborn", 0);
}

abstract public void makeNoise();

public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
  public int getAge()
    {
        return age;
    }

    public void setName(String newName) {
        name = newName;
    }

abstract public Food eat(Food x) throws Exception;

abstract public void eat(Food food, int count) throws Exception;


}

狼class(子class)

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class Wolf extends Carnivore
{

            ArrayList<Food> foodGroup = new ArrayList<>();
String name;
int age;

Wolf(String name, int age)   
{  
    this.name = name;
    this.age = age;
}
Wolf()
{
  super();
}
    public void makeNoise()  
    {
        noise = "Woof!";
    }
    public String getNoise()  
    {
        return noise;
    }

    public Food eat(Food x) throws Exception
    { 
        if (x instanceof Meat) {
                return x;
            } else {
               throw new Exception("Carnivores only eat meat!");
            }
    }
public void eat(Food food, int count) {
    while (count > 0) {
        addFood(food);
        count--;
    }
}


public void addFood(Food inFood)
{
  foodGroup.add(inFood);
}
}

演示 class

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class Demo {

    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
                    ArrayList<Animal> animalGroup = new ArrayList<>();
     //Add new Animals with properties such as name and age?           
     Animal wolf1 = new Wolf();

    addAnimal(new Wolf("lnb1g16", 6));

    }

    public static void addAnimal(Animal inAnimal)
{
    animalGroup.add(inAnimal);
}

}

显然,我想在演示 class 中基于这些先前的 classes 创建一组动物?我不明白这是如何完成的,也不知道为什么我需要创建另一个主要方法。任何关于如何编写演示 class 的帮助将不胜感激,因为我对我被要求做的事情感到困惑,谢谢。

演示class

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
                ArrayList<Animal> animalGroup = new ArrayList<>();
 //Add new Animals with properties such as name and age?           
 Animal wolf1 = new Wolf();

animalGroup.add(new Wolf("sam", 5));
animalGroup.add(new Wolf("george", 5));
animalGroup.add(new Wolf("patrick", 7));

}
