Most ungulates, or hooved animals, are herbivors, such as horses, all ruminants like cows, and elephants. However, pigs are also ungulates, and they are omnivores.
Yes, birds are non-ruminants.
No, ruminants are those animals like cows which regurgitate their food and chew it, then swallow it again for further digestion. Elephants don't do this, their food passes straight through the alimentary canal as ours does.
yes canine teeth are present in ruminants
Yes. Hind-gut fermentors are psuedo-ruminants.
The major difference is protein sources. Ruminants require less protein than non-ruminants, and consequently require more fibre in their diet than non-ruminants. Non-ruminants cannot digest fibre and cellulose nearly as well as ruminants can, and thus need higher concentrate feedstuffs to actually do well.
following are the non ruminants..........HUMANS,PIG,MOUSE,HORSE etc
Yes indeed! Ruminants include wildebeest, hartebeest, cape buffalo, gazelles, springbok (and all other species of antelope) and giraffes. Non-ruminants include lions, zebras, hyenas, crocodiles, baboons, hippos, rhinos, etc.

Yes, cows produce methane, just like all other ruminants and non-ruminants.
