sqlite3.OperationalError: no such table: - python-3.x

Question

I was wondering if you can help, I'm trying to link a database to an API, whenever I try to run it it gives me the error
sqlite3.OperationalError: no such table: animals_information
I know the table has been created and it has contents as whenever I try to print it out it works but for some reasons then when in the code it comes out with the error if anyone could help that'd be great! The entire code is below.
import flask
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import sqlite3
app = flask.Flask(__name__)
app.config["DEBUG"] = True
def dict_factory(cursor, row):
d = {}
for idx, col in enumerate(cursor.description):
d[col[0]] = row[idx]
return d
#app.route('/', methods=['GET'])
def home():
return '''<h1>Animals Archive </h1>
<p>A prototype API to store animals data for our Code First Girl Project.</p>'''
#app.route('/api/v1/resources/animals/all', methods=['GET'])
def api_all():
conn = sqlite3.connect('animals_information.db')
conn.row_factory = dict_factory
cur = conn.cursor()
all_animals = cur.execute('SELECT * FROM animals_information;').fetchall()
return jsonify(all_animals)
#app.errorhandler(404)
def page_not_found(e):
return "<h1>404</h1><p>The resource could not be found.</p>", 404
