There are two methods by which animals could be said to eat their food twice - coprophagy and rumination.
Coprophagy is a natural action in which an animal deliberately consumes its own feces. One commonly known animal that does this is the rabbit, which must consume some of its own feces to maintain adequate levels of Vitamin B12 in its body.
Rumination is a process in which an animal partially chews its food, swallows it then reguritates it back into its mouth to be chewed again. Several commonly known animals that do this are the cow, the deer, the camel and the yak.
