What animals are hindgut fermenters?

Dogs are not foregut or hindgut fermenters. They are omnivores, so the form they receive their food in is easy to digest. Foregut and hindgut fermentation are special adaptations seen in herbivores (such as cows and horses), that allow them to deal with their difficult-to-digest food.

What is the differences between hindgut and foregut fermenters?

Hindgut fermenters use microbes (bacteria only) and fermentaion in their hindgut, the caecum and proximal colon. Microbes that are washed out cannot be digested and therefore high-quality protein is lost. Examples of hindgut fermenters are horses, koalas, possums, wombats and pigs. (not pigs, because only herbivores have hindgut or foregut) Foregut Fermeters have two sacs (a tubiform and a sacciform fore stomach) containing lots of microbes. These microbes consume glucose from cellulose but produce fatty acids that the animal can use for energy. (Microbes can also be digested further along the digestive tract as they are also a source of protein) Forgut Fermentation is a slower digestive process. Examples of foregut fermenters are sheep, cattle, hippopotamus, wallabies and pademelons. (generally larger animals)

What are tower fermenters?

Tower fermenters are simple in design and easy to construct. They consist of a long cylindrical vessel with an inlet at the bottom, an exhaust at the top, and a jacket to control temperature. They do not require agitation hence there are no shafts, impellers or blades.Tower fermenters are used for continuous fermentation of beer, yeast and SCP.
