Canine role in digestion

Answer 1

Canines, or dogs, play a unique role in the digestion process primarily due to their evolutionary adaptation as carnivores. Their digestive systems are equipped with powerful enzymes and a shorter gastrointestinal tract that efficiently break down protein and fat from meat. Additionally, dogs have a strong sense of smell that can help identify food, influencing their foraging behaviors. While they rely on their owners for food, their natural instincts and digestive capabilities have evolved to handle a meat-based diet effectively.
