∙ 12y agoIn the scientific community, it is generally accepted that any animal that doesn't eat a single plant in its life cannot be considered an herbivore.
Beyond this, the definitions get a little fuzzy.
The famed Marine Biologist, Henry Ingold, was the first to discover a medium-sized invertebrate near the sea floor which was previously thought to be considered a "herbiphobe" (the opposite of herbivore - it literally means afraid of plants, but the scientists use it to describe simply an animal that doesn't eat plants. Aside from a few small mammals, two breeds of burrowing owls, and at least three different breeds of shark, there are very few animals which are truly afraid of plants.) which is now causing some debate in the field.
This invertebrate appears to slowly dissolve any seaweed (most often kelp) it comes into contact with, although it happens so slowly it took awhile to discover this phenomenon. However, it is as of yet unclear whether or not it actually obtains nutrients from the seaweed. If it does not, it can't truly be said to be eating the plant, just slowly killing it for no apparent reason.
Hope this helps!

What are some herbivores in the Antarctic?
There are no plants in Antarctica, although there is lichen. This situation means that any animal that eats plants needs to feed in the ocean, like a manatee, since those cold shores are very rich in nutrients and plant material. However, the water is not warm enough for manatees or dugongs. Fish, then, are the main herbivores in the Antarctic.
