Hint: For solving this type of question we just need to find the percentage of the component and it will be calculated by using the formula Percentage of component = Value of componentTotal value×100 and for this we need to find the total value and it will be calculated by summing up all the number of creatures. So by doing the above steps we have the percentage and then we can draw the pie chart easily.

Formula used:
Percentage of component will be calculated by,
Percentage of component = Value of componentTotal value×100

Complete step-by-step answer:
So, we have the total number of creatures will be equal to,
400+120+135+170+75
And on adding it, we will get
900
Therefore, total creature will be equal to 900
Percentage of wild animals will be calculated by using the formula and substituting the values, we get
400900×100
And on solving it we get
44.44%
Percentage of birds will be calculated by using the formula and substituting the values, we get
120900×100
And on solving it we get
13.33%
Percentage of land animals will be calculated by using the formula and substituting the values, we get
135900×100
And on solving it we get
15%
Percentage of land animals will be calculated by using the formula and substituting the values, we get
170900×100
And on solving it we get
18.89%
Percentage of reptiles will be calculated by using the formula and substituting the values, we get
75900×100
And on solving it we get
8%
So now by substituting all the values and considering for the circle we will assign the required area for each of the percentages.
The pie chart will be as,

Note: For finding the pie chart we can also calculate them in degree and the formula will be the same. Just instead of multiplying by 100 , in this we will multiply it by 360 . And on solving it we will get the ratios of distribution in angle. While drawing a pie chart we should always mention the name for the box.
