Cycads are primarily eaten by herbivores, including various insects, small mammals, and some reptiles. Notable herbivores include certain species of caterpillars and beetles, which feed on the leaves, as well as larger animals like iguanas and tortoises. Additionally, some larger mammals may consume cycad seeds or fruits. However, many cycads contain toxic compounds that deter some animals from feeding on them.
