An aardvark is not considered a scavenger; it primarily feeds on ants and termites, which it digs out of the ground using its long snout and powerful claws. This nocturnal mammal forages for its food rather than scavenging for leftovers from other animals. While it may occasionally consume some plant matter, its diet is predominantly insectivorous.
