The term vertebrate, refers to animal life which have a backbone. Without knowing which particular species you were referring to, this question may not be answered in the way you had in mind.

Vertebrates can be herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores.

For instance, when I decide to feed my snake I put him in an empty fish tank. You can use a larger box if you wish, but then I just drop the mouse (the snake's meal) in the tank (or box) and the snake bites it and spins.Then the snake just opens his mouth and inch by inch, he slides it down and I mean inch by inch: it takes a long time.
