Kangaroo rats are mainly granivores as they primarily eat seeds of plants. However, they do eat some vegetation, as well as insects and invertebrates, so they can be considered to be omnivores.
They live in North America and are completely different to rat kangaroos, being not even remotely related to kangaroos of Australia.
