Where and when did you encounter these animals? Many of the animals they consume are herbivores, though. Herbivores can be further classified into frugivores (fruit-eaters), granivores (seed eaters), nectivores (nectar feeders), and folivores (leaf eaters). Examples of herbivores include vertebrates like deer, koalas, and some bird species, as well as invertebrates such as crickets and caterpillars. Omnivores are organisms that eat both plants and animals, and in some cases, algae, fungi, and even bacteria. They can only eat things that are moderately easy to acquire while being moderately nutritious.

Omnivores like the (a) bear and (b) crayfish eat both plant and animal based food. Not to mention, cows simply do not have the teeth designed to properly chew meat. What can we do to protect the balance in our natural ecosystem? Explain thatcarnivorerefers to living things that eat almost exclusively other animals. Bacillus thuringiensis is a soil bacterium that destroys the stomach of caterpillars. Dogs have medium-sized digestive tracts: longer than cats and other obligate carnivores, but shorter than many other herbivores and omnivores. Search our database of over 12348 posts with up-to-date information from our experts and veterinarians.

They can have a strict diet of only plants and lead a happy and healthy life. The habitat of a caterpillar can vary depending on the species. Introduce students to twoomnivoresfound in American Samoa by distributing the Wildlife handout and asking them to point out which animals areomnivores.
