All carnivores (meat eaters) and most omnivores (eat meat and plants) have large, prominent, well-developed canine teeth, to rip, tear and cut meat. Big cats, bears, and stoats/weasels etc. also have large canine teeth.All mammals have canines, but in herbivores, they are small and often flattened. Humans have canine teeth.
