Interaction between cellulase-digesting bacteria in the stomach of herbivores and the herbivores themselves.
there are many caterpillars and fish that are tropical herbivores
Its an omnivore. It can stomach both meat and plants.
The reason for long alimentary canal in herbivores is that they have 3 pseudo parts of stomach before their actual or true stomach starts, namely:- (1.)reticulum (2.)remen (3.)omasum (4.)abomasum or the true stomach.
Not all turtles are herbivores. Snapping turtles, for example, commonly eat fish or frogs. Many species of turtle, such as Russian tortoises, do mostly consume vegetation but will occasionally consume worms or insects.

Not ALL herbivores do, four chambers are a characteristic of "ruminant" herbivores. Herbivores need to be able to get energy from plant material (a sugar called cellulose) and to do this they need to get bacteria to "ferment" the plant material they eat (they then live on the reproducing bacteria). The chambers of the stomach are where this fermentation happens. Humans stomachs are designed to eat fruits and meat and therefor we do not need large stomachs (gorillas do because although they are not ruminants they live on plants).

All herbivores are notorious for passing wind, which is when the fodder is broken down in the stomach, and gases are produced.

Dogs are monogastrics. Cows are ruminants. Monogastrics have one simple stomach: Ruminants have a complex four-chambered stomach.

No. There are many small mammalian carnivores, insectivores, piscivores, and omnivores. In fact, many mammalian carnivores hunt herbivores that are bigger than they are. The biggest land mammals are all herbivores.
Herbivores for example rabbits, because they eat plants. Many insects are herbivores as larvae, or as adults in the case of grasshoppers and locusts.
All herbivores eat primarily plants. Many omnivores also eat plants.

NicheThis grazing mammal favors grasses, leaves and shrubs, but it can also stomach thorns and dry vegetation that other herbivores cannot digest. This enables them to survive in areas of sparse vegetation.
