This example demonstrates a dropdown menu for selecting a pet type, with the current choice displayed via React state. The interface uses a reusable `Dropdown` component that maps over an array of options to render `<select>` and `<option>` elements, triggering state updates through the `onSelectedValueChange` callback. Built with React and ReactDOM, the app initializes with a default value of “hamster” and logs each selection to the console. Styling via inline CSS enlarges the label and select for readability, while the component structure separates data handling from presentation.
