Dugong, also known as "sea cows", are herbivores. They feed mainly on seagrass, with a preference for small varieties such as Halophilia ovalis and Halodule uninervis. They will eat the entire plant including the rhizomes, roots and leaves, and have actually been known to "crop" of "farm" their favourite seagrasses.
Dugong may eat up to 40kg of seagrass per day. They also eat roots and leaves of some other marine plants.
