Herbivore

(This article is about anatomically and physiologically adapted diets to plants. For the deliberate plant-only diet in human beings, see Veganism. For the Japanese social phenomenon, see Herbivore men.) A herbivore is an animal anatomically and physiologically adapted to eating plant material, for example foliage, for the main component of its diet. As a result of their plant diet, herbivorous animals typically have mouthparts adapted to rasping or grinding. Horses and other herbivores have wide flat teeth that are adapted to grinding grass, tree bark, and other tough plant material.
