A mammal's teeth correspond to their function: mainly, eating. Herbivorous mammals have evolved a larger number of molars and fewer canines. Carnivorous mammals have evolved a larger number of canines and fewer molars. Omnivores typically have a large amount of each. Anteaters have no teeth as they obtain their diet of ants via their long, sticky tongue, and do not chew their food.
