There are 3 main eating habits of all animals. Animals that eat only plants, grass, leaves etc. are called "herbivorous animals". Examples of these would be cows, horses, goats etc in the domestic scene and deer, zebras, girraffes etc in the wild.

Animals that eat only other animals are called "carnivorous animals". Examples of these would be lions, tigers, snakes etc. You won't find many tamed carnivorous animals buts cats & dogs prefer to eat meat rather than leaves.

That leads us to the group of animals that like to eat both plants and animals. Infact some of them like the rat, can eat almost anything. This group of animals are called "omnivorous animals". Most humans are omnivorous, though there are some who will eat only plant life and avoid eating even eggs, fish and milk because of religious or ethnic reasons. Some have made personal choices to eat only vegetarian food because they understand that the human body is best suited for vegetarian food and finds it comparatively difficult to digest meat.

I don't know whether you mean how have they or have they but I'll give this my best shot! In different countries e.g Greece street cats as i shall call them can't get all the meat and protein for example , they are meant too so they eat wat they can. They have adapted. Also when a animal's food runs out or they can't get it they have to adapt to be able to get something different. That's why omnivore are really well adapted because if a certain plant runs out they can have bugs or what not! Another point that should be thought about is some plants contain poison so they have been adapted to not be harmed.

That's my answer not sure if it helped but if it did I am glad. :D

If you are doing a research , i hope I've helped you . Wish you good luck to finish your project !

Have a nice day ahead ! :D

Carnivores eat meat. Some hunt and kill their own. Others are called scavengers. They are the animals that eat the leftovers of an already killed\dead animal.

What are omnavors?

Omnivores can eat meat as well as vegetables. Human beings are considered omnivorous because we are capable of eating meat(although a growing number choose not to) as well as plants to survive. Some animals are strictly carnivorous, eating only meat. Some animals are strictly herbivorous, eating only plant life. For animals that are not omnivorous, eating something that is outside of their nature to eat can make them very sick.


What will happen to animals if all plants vanish and vice verse?

If all plants vanish from the planet, then there will be no food for plant eating animals and they will die of hunger and the animal eating animals (Carnivorous.) die as they will not have plant eating animals to eat. Also Carbon bi oxide will go on increasing and Oxygen go on decreasing, as animals will respire to produce it and plants are are not there to convert it back to Oxygen. Vise verse if all animals vanish from the earth, then Plants will not get the Carbon bi oxide, required for photosynthesis and they will also die of starvation, as they also need food for there growth and respiration.
